[[M]anuel]

Juventus saw this Sunday a momentous 4-3 victory at the Olympic Stadium against Roma of the Portuguese, José Mourinho, after overcoming an adverse 1-3 and saving himself in the last minutes after a penalty missed by Lorenzo Pellegrini, which allowed him move within three points of fourth place in Italian Serie A.

Massimiliano Allegri's team, who was in the stands when he was suspended, is five points behind Napoli, third, with the same number of games, and this Sunday added a victory of enormous emotional weight.

After going ahead with a header from Englishman Tammy Abraham, Dybala managed the equalizer with a goal from the edge of the area, but the Romans pressed with more intensity and, with a great restart, he took the lead 3-1 thanks to the Armenian Henrikh Mkhitaryan and a masterful direct free kick transformed by Lorenzo Pellegrini.

But everything changed in seven vibrant minutes, between 70 and 77, thanks also to the entry of the Spanish Álvaro Morata. The attacker, Barcelona's target of the market, hung a great cross for Locatelli to 2-3, before Swede Dejan Kulusevski and Mattia De Sciglio completed an epic comeback.

The emotions did not end at that time, because shortly after Juventus were left with ten men for the red to the Dutch Matthijs De Ligt, which resulted in a penalty. It could have been a draw, but Pole Wojciech Szczesny saved Lorenzo Pellegrini's shot and saved a momentous 4-3.
