Hello, we are back with another live blog, and it’s Genoa vs Juventus, a Serie A 2025-26 clash. Stay tuned for live updates, kickoff at 10:00 PM IST.
As of now, no broadcaster holds the rights to televise Serie A in India. In Italy, however, fans can catch the action live on Sky Sports, Now TV, and DAZN.
Here we go then! The whistle blows, and we’re underway. Juventus take the first touch, rolling the ball out as the night in Genoa comes alive. The crowd’s buzzing, the stage is set, let’s see who lands the first punch.
Five minutes in and we’ve got an early pause, Khéphren Thuram is down and needing some treatment. The medics are on quickly, and both sets of fans take a breather as he gets checked over. Not the start Juventus would’ve wanted, but it gives everyone a moment to catch their breath.
Nineteen minutes in and the first card of the night is out! Joao Mario goes into the book after chopping down his man, no arguments there, the referee didn’t even have to think twice. Juventus now walking a tightrope in midfield.
What a chance for Genoa! Mikael Egill Ellertsson finds himself perfectly placed in the box, the pull-back begging to be buried. But his strike lacks any sting, rolling straight into Michele Di Gregorio’s gloves. That should’ve been 1-0, big let-off for the Bianconeri.
We’re into the 45th minute, and the referee signals one added minute at the end of this half. Can either side snatch a last-second goal before the break?
After two minutes of added time, the whistle blows on the first half, it’s Grifone 0, Bianconeri 0. A cagey first 45 with a few close calls, but neither side could find the breakthrough. Fans are buzzing in anticipation for what’s next.
Foul spotted on Francisco Conceição as he brings down his man. Aarón Martín steps up for Genoa, earning a free kick on the left wing, a chance to swing in something dangerous and test the Bianconeri defense.
Just moments before, Leoostigard picks up a yellow card, adding some spice to Genoa’s backline. Tensions rising as the second half heats up.
Goal Bianconeri! Dusan Vlahovic rises highest in the box and powers a header into the bottom right corner, giving Juventus the lead. Filip Kostic’s corner delivery was perfect, Grifone can only watch as the Bianconeri take 1-0.
Late drama for Grifone. Ruslan Malinovskyi tries his luck with a left-footed strike from outside the box, set up beautifully by Johan Vasquez, but it sails just wide to the right. Juventus breathe a sigh of relief as the clock ticks closer to full-time.
That’s a wrap from Genoa. Juventus take all three points, and we’ll be back soon with more live-action updates. Until then, bye-bye and keep the football fever alive.
