Juventus close in on top four with composed win over Genoa

Juventus took another confident step towards the Serie A top four, securing a controlled 2–0 victory against Genoa in Turin.
The hosts wasted no time asserting dominance, striking as early as the fourth minute. Bremer rose highest to meet a cross, his header taking a slight deflection that left the goalkeeper wrong-footed. It was the perfect start for Juventus, who dictated the tempo from the outset.
Before the break, Massimiliano Allegri’s side doubled their advantage with a move straight off the training ground. A slick, flowing team attack was finished clinically by Weston McKennie.
The game’s turning point came soon after, when Genoa were awarded a penalty. However, substitute goalkeeper Michele Di Gregorio produced a stunning double save — first denying Martin from the spot, then reacting quickly to stop the rebound — preserving Juventus' clean sheet in dramatic fashion.
