Missed match but just finished watching it after recording. My top 4 players tonight were Higgy, Costa, MDS, and Asamoah. Let's stop with the Higgy hate until he really deserves it. Costa shows everyone why speed kills and you can't teach it. Other than the bad positioning late by MDS, he was solid playing with confidence. And Asamoah just did what was needed to do that Sandro has failed at for the most part this season.
Chiellini was solid in the back but along with Pjanic had too many bad clearances out of the back. Panic did set up Matuidi nicely. And thought Sami K would/deserved to go out after the injury but Max sure loves this guy. Special mention to a backline of MDS-Benatia-Chiel-Asa who performed well like the Juve defense for so many years working as a cohesive unit. Bonucci, do you hear that? You were special because the group together was special.
This all being said, Napoli completely controlled possession but Higgy struck early and Juve settled back into don't be too aggression and win a 1-0 match. Complete 11 man defensive show and with all the Napoli opportunities didn't see one that should have been a sure fire goal. A win is win and now only 1 back and maybe will be 2 to Inter.
