Juventus V Bologna

A dramatic end to a wonderful game in Turin. Juventus remain unbeaten and this time they managed to do without causing any controversies! Both goals came in the second half, the first on 54 minutes by Fabio Quagliarella and the second on 92 minutes by Paul Pogba and in between Bologna got a goal to give them some hope after a slack pass by Paolo De Ceglie, but he hasn't played much so far in the season, so it is not too surprising that some mistakes were made- thankfully they were not costly!
Juventus and Bologna had an even share of possession, but one does have to admit that it was mostly The Old Lady in the first half with so many chance to go ahead early on. Juve were taking the shots when they could, in total they had 25 shots with 12 on goal and forcing the keeper to make 10 important saves. While Bologna had 9 shots with only 1 on goal, but not testing Gianluigi Buffon at all, yet after Bologna got that one goal they grew in stature and began to really attack Juve and if they had some better quality upfront they could really hurt the Bianconeri.
Bologna were so close to snatching a point but the never say die attitude that is in this Juve side prevailed and they came out 2-1 winners. Now for the big game against Inter, who look to be getting better with each game and were victorious against Sampdoria and are now secon behind Juve as Napoli lost their game against Atalanta!
Well, it's never boring in the Italian peninsular that's for sure!
