To end 2025, Juventus grinded their way to a win over a relegation battler. But in their first fixture of 2026, Juventus grinded every bit of our collective gears as they dropped points against a relegation battler.
Yep, not great!
As frustrating of a 1-1 draw as you might ever see took place at the Allianz Stadium this past weekend, with Juventus dropping points against a Lecce side that entered the penultimate round of the andata in 16th place. Juventus dominated just about every statistical category you want to throw out there, but two massive game-changing mistakes — one from Andrea Cambiaso and another from Jonathan David — caused the Bianconeri to drop points for the first time in a month.
Frustrating. Every single bit of it.
