Weah key man of Juve: more goals and speed for Allegri's team

This is how the new Bianconeri signing can help Max: His past as a striker has left him incisive, his running is precious for his more aggressive approach

The goal with which Timothy Weah signed Juventus' 2-0 win against Real Madrid in the last friendly of the black and white tour in the United States is something more than a nice business card . It's a sort of pilot scene for a film still to be shot, but regarding the success of which that very scene invites optimism. Outside the cinematic metaphor, that goal is an encouraging example of how Weah 's insertions could be precious in raising the black and white incisiveness in the opposing area, one of the main problems of Massimiliano Allegri 's team last season.

The goal against Real was the result not only of the excellent action built by his teammates, but also of the intelligence and speed of the American in following it and of the astuteness in taking advantage of the movement towards goal with which Kean lowered the Madrid defense , to enter the space freed up behind the partner and the defenders. Movement as a striker as Weah was until two years ago, as was the conclusion as a striker: from that position with a little luck you can score simply by hitting the ball, but the black and white opened his right foot to place it in the corner further away from Courtois who was moving to cover the mirror.
