Thanks to a goal from Vlahovic, Juventus defeated Genoa 1-0 in the second round of the 2025/26 Serie A season. Coach Igor Tudor expressed his delight at the players' performance and expressed his happiness that the team had kept a clean sheet for two consecutive matches.
In the 73rd minute of the second half, Kostic took a corner kick, and Vlahovic seized the opportunity to head the ball into the goal, helping Juventus take the lead 1-0.
In the end, Juventus defeated Genoa 1-0 away. After achieving two consecutive victories, Juventus is currently ranked second in the standings with 6 points, tied with first-place Napoli.
Juventus coach Igor Tudor said, "I liked the team's performance very much. I saw that all the players were very focused and in good shape. Even the players who came on as substitutes played with a clear mindset, and Vlahovic's goal was the best proof of that. I saw the right fighting spirit and the atmosphere in the locker room was very positive. We need this kind of performance because when we come to Genoa to play, we have to give our all from the start to the end until we leave the field with a victory."
“I’m very happy with keeping two clean sheets in a row, which shows that we performed very well defensively. Vlahovic is a very important player and he started the season very well. He made a huge impact immediately after coming on as a substitute in this game, just like in the previous match against Parma, but we may also see him starting in the future.”
It is worth mentioning that Vlahovic scored in the first round of Serie A in the new season and performed very well.
The 25-year-old Vlahovic said in an interview, "We played very well and I want to congratulate my teammates and the coach. I just wanted to play and score goals. We are all very happy to win in a difficult away game, which allows us to enter the international match day with two consecutive wins."
"In recent weeks, I have only focused on the pitch and tried my best in training. I am very happy to be able to help the team and hope to continue in this state. This season will also be very long and we hope to achieve the results the team wants. However, we have to play one game at a time and not think too far ahead."
