Juventus' horrific start to the season continued last night (Sunday), when the old lady parted ways in a 1-1 draw at home to AC Milan, left without a win after four rounds, and is now below the red line.
Amazingly, this is the fourth time in history, and the first since the 1961/62 season, that the old lady has not won in the first four rounds.
The Bianconeri took the lead in the fourth minute thanks to a goal by Albero Murata, but absorbed the equalizer about a quarter of an hour before the end, when the visitors had several opportunities to complete a turnaround and open a gap of 11 points over their opponent.
Coach Similiano Allegri commented on the big difference in ability between the halves and said: "Despite a good first half, in which we created situations and allowed Milan to get only one chance, we almost lost a game that was completely under our control. Unfortunately we lost concentration. ".

"There were some positive things, or in other words the first half, but what makes me angry is the last quarter of an hour. We had to fight harder."
Allegri then admitted that he also has a part in losing points: "I made some mistakes in the substitutions, I had to put in more defensive players and keep the 0-1, so I take responsibility for that"
Danilo tried to put his finger on the source of the problem: " In my opinion, this is more of a mental problem than physical fitness. Sometimes we do not press or move on defense as a team, do not move the ball fast enough and definitely need to improve it. We need to play more as a team, we do not have difficulty in terms of ability. Smart and understand what caused these results. "
The Brazilian stated that his team's goal was "preventable" and referred to the eight-point gap: "We should focus only on our work and our progress, not on what other teams do. If we play at our level, we can definitely climb up the table."

Milan, on the other hand, equaled Inter at the top with 10 points, and there the mood is much more optimistic for the rest of the season.
"As always, Milan have no shortage of passion, character and determination, so we kept looking for the win," coach Stefano Fioli said. "Overall, it's a good show."
The equalizer, Ante Ravic, became Milan's first player in the three-point era in Italy (since the 1994/95 season) to score in three consecutive meetings against Juventus.
"He is very quality," said Fioli, "he can play in just about any position and he helped us today. He is very important and can open games for us."

And of course, that is impossible without Ronaldo.
Many Juventus fans and commentators in Italy have claimed that Ronaldo is part of Juventus' problems, given the fact that he drags all the focus on him, does not defend, produces social problems and interferes with the development of other players.
Quite a few football fans in Italy thought that the Portuguese's departure would only do good for Juventus and release the team - but now, while Ronaldo looks great at Manchester United (four goals in three games) and Juventus still do not win without him - social media is celebrating at the expense of the old lady, especially fans Manchester United.
"Yes, Ronaldo delayed them," wrote one of the fans, who showed the table in which Yuva below the red line, "he delayed them from relegation."
