The Juventus Men’s First Team won the Serie A Matchday 3 clash with Inter 4-3, thanks to goals from Lloyd Kelly, Kenan Yildiz, Khephren Thuram and the decisive strike from Vasilije Adzic, which secured the third consecutive victory this season.

KELLY AND YILDIZ PUT JUVE IN CHARGE

Inter started strongly, with Nicolo Barella and Marcus Thuram immediately looking dangerous, but Michele Di Gregorio was up to the challenge.

After the first quarter of an hour, however, Juventus upped the tempo and took the lead in the 14th minute: Manuel Locatelli picked out Bremer with a pinpoint pass, and the Brazilian produced a volleyed assist for Kelly, who coolly slotted the ball into the corner to make it 1-0.

Inter reacted and found the equaliser in the 30th minute: Carlos Augusto sent in a low cross, the ball ended up with Hakan Calhanoglu, who scored from outside the box to make it 1-1.

Juve remained composed, continued to push forward and once again found Yildiz to be the key man. The number 10 was unstoppable. First, he weaved his way through the Nerazzurri defence to force a corner, then he fired a right-footed shot from the edge of the box that grazed the post.

On his third attempt, in the 38th minute, the goal came. Bremer slipped the ball through, and the Turkish player controlled it and fired an angled shot past Sommer to put the Bianconeri back in front.

At the end of the half, Teun Koopmeiners also had a chance, set up again by Yildiz, but his shot went wide. The teams went into the break with the score at 2-1.

INTER FIGHT BACK, AND SO DO JUVE

The second half began with Inter on the attack. Francesco Acerbi and Thuram immediately caused chaos in the Bianconeri area, while Calhanoglu tried several times to score from distance. Juventus resisted and responded with Dusan Vlahovic, who came close to scoring a third with a header from a corner.

The momentum of the game changed in the 65th minute when Calhanoglu collected a pass from Piotr Zielinski and fired an unstoppable right-footed shot from the edge of the box to make it 2-2.

Inter grew in confidence and continued to push forward, eventually taking the lead in the 76th minute when Thuram rose highest to head home from a corner to make it 2-3.

It looked like the knockout blow, but Juve still had some fight left in them.

Tudor reshuffled the team with the additions of Adzic, Lois Openda and Juan Cabal, and the reaction was immediate. In the 82nd minute, Thuram rose above the defence to meet a cross and headed home to make it 3-3, reigniting the Allianz Stadium.

Inter did their best to regain the lead, but the Bianconeri defence held firm. In the 91st minute, the special moment arrived.

Adzic received the ball outside the box, set himself, and unleashed a wonderful right-footed shot that nestled in the top corner. The goal made it 4-3, and the Bianconeri fans exploded with joy.

In two days' time, the spotlight will turn to the Champions League.
