Juventus secured a 3–2 victory over Venezia in Serie A last night. Here are our Juventus player ratings for the game that secured Champions League football.
Michele Di Gregorio – 6.0The Juventus goalkeeper did not cover himself in glory for either of Venezia’s goals. His positioning and reactions could have been sharper, but fortunately for him, Juve still managed to come away with all three points.
Alberto Costa – 7.0Costa continues to develop with every appearance. He was particularly effective going forward and contributed significantly to Juventus’ attacking transitions. A solid showing that highlights his ongoing growth.
Nicolo Savona – 6.5Selected to start in central defence, Savona delivered a reasonable performance, though he lacked the composure and assurance typically seen from Veiga or Gatti. Improvement is needed in his positioning and decision-making under pressure.
Lloyd Kelly – 7.0Arguably, Juventus’ most reliable defender on a night when the backline was tested. Kelly’s reading of the game and timely interventions helped keep the hosts ahead during some nervy spells.
Andrea Cambiaso – 7.0Cambiaso delivered another excellent performance, thriving in wide areas and frequently finding space to drive at the Venezia defence. His movement and intent were consistent throughout.
Khéphren Thuram – 7.5Returning to the starting line-up, Thuram showcased his class in midfield, dictating tempo and helping Juventus maintain control for large portions of the match.
Manuel Locatelli – 8.0Locatelli was the standout performer on the night. He controlled proceedings in midfield and dispatched the decisive penalty with composure. His leadership and technical quality were vital in securing European qualification.
Nicolás González – 7.0Operating as a wing-back, González adapted well and performed his duties effectively. He balanced his defensive responsibilities with forward runs, contributing to both phases of play.
Francisco Conceição – 7.0Positioned just behind the striker, Conceição was a constant nuisance for the Venezia defence. His creativity and movement added unpredictability to Juventus’ attack.
Kenan Yildiz – 7.5Yildiz was once again a standout. He ended the season in fine form and demonstrated maturity beyond his years. Supporters will be eager to see how he progresses next term.
Randal Kolo Muani – 7.0A strong performance capped by a goal, which may prove to be his final one in a Juventus shirt. He led the line well and linked up with his teammates effectively.
Substitutes
Renato Veiga – 7.0Came on to help stabilise the defence and did so with composure. His presence added solidity at a crucial stage.
Weston McKennie – 5.5Offered little impact after his introduction. Struggled to influence the game in any meaningful way.
Dušan Vlahović – 6.0Brought on to provide an additional goal threat but was unable to find the net despite his efforts.
Timothy Weah – N/AToo little time on the pitch to warrant a fair rating.
Federico Gatti – N/APlayed too briefly to make a noticeable impact.
