Juventus 2-0 Parma: two substitutes break the deadlock
AI-written review based on match data · How we make it
Key numbers
- xG 1.58 v 0.25: the chances favoured Juventus
- 0.08 xG per shot: much volume, modest openings
- Two substitutes, two goals: 33 and 9 minutes played
Two substitutes finally unpick Parma
Nothing separated the sides at the break, and the breakthrough came from the bench. Nicolás González, a second-half substitute, scored in the 62nd minute, and Teun Koopmeiners added a second in the 88th. Juventus led for only about 28 minutes, yet both goals came from the bench.
Plenty of shots, little quality in them
Juventus took 21 shots but averaged only 0.08 xG per shot, and more than half were struck from outside the box. That suggests volume rather than clean openings, even if their 1.58 xG still dwarfed Parma's total. The pressure was sustained, but it took until well into the second half to produce a goal.
Parma's threat came from one substitute
Parma's shot count was small, but their accuracy was not. All three of their shots on target came from David Romero in 28 minutes off the bench, and Guglielmo Vicario saved each of them. That kept the deficit to a single goal until the 88th minute.
González's goal carried the match's weight
González's 62nd-minute opener was worth +1.1 FN xPts, which shows how much a goal that breaks a level match changes a side's expected points. Koopmeiners's late finish arrived with Juventus already ahead, so it moved that figure far less. Manuel Locatelli supplied the assist and Juventus climbed to second in the table.
Player of the match
Nicolás González 8.0Dominant
One goal and four shots in 33 minutes off the bench.
Attack was where González earned most of his credit: two of those shots were on target, and one broke the deadlock in the 62nd minute. That goal began a lead of about 28 minutes. He also won all four of his duels and made three interceptions, so his short spell was not only about finishing.

Expected points don't add up to a fixed total (a draw is 1 + 1), so an opponent's moment isn't simply the mirror of your loss. "Time effect" is the change as the clock runs down on a lead or a chase, and isn't credited to any player.
