Without forcing in a controlled match of the head and shoulders, Juve easily won at home against Frosinone (4-0). A flashy success of the Bianconeri – marked in particular by Milik’s hat-trick – who therefore reach the last four of the Coppa Italia where they will find Lazio.
Against the Napoli executioner in the previous round, the Vecchia Signora starts this quarter-final in the best possible way by getting a penalty, following a foul by Lirola on Miretti. Milik takes his responsibilities and launches hostilities with a counter-foot (1-0, 11th). As usual after opening the score, the Bianconeri switch to corto-muso and leave the leather to the Leoni, who have all the trouble in the world to be dangerous. Juve takes the opportunity to proceed in counter-attack. And on McKennie’s great job, Milik is alone in the second post and performs a chest-stroke control sequence: Cerofolini is beaten (2-0, 38th).
Allegri’s men are even offered gifts. Author of a superb parade in front of McKennie a few minutes before, Cerofolini is guilty of a bad raise towards Mazzitelli who loses the leather under the pressure of Locatelli, the Juventus midfielder serves Milik who only has to conclude (3-0, 48th). Tripletta for the Pole. Then it’s Yildiz’s turn to write his name on the bulletin board. The Turkish crack concludes a McKennie center with a magnificent volley (4-0, 61st). The score will no longer move.
A 4-0 victory for Allegri’s 400th match on the Turin bench. Superstition?
