– Juventus cruised past Sassuolo as a Dusan Vlahovic double, including a penalty, led the Turin club to a 3-0 home win at the start of their Serie A campaign on Monday.
– Juve opened the scoring in the 26th minute through Angel Di Maria, who volleyed Alex Sandro’s cross into the ground with the bounce taking it over stranded goalkeeper Andrea Consigli.
– Vlahovic doubled Juve’s lead with a penalty in the 43rd minute, awarded after Gian Marco Ferrari prevented the Serbia international from scoring by holding him back with both arms.
