Como Beats Juventus 2-0 as Nico Paz Stars

Juventus fall to a first defeat of the season after five straight draws, sharpening focus on Igor Tudor’s choices before a demanding trip to Real Madrid.

Overview

  • Marc Oliver Kempf struck in the 4th minute from a Nico Paz delivery, and Paz sealed the result with a 79th‑minute finish.
  • The loss ends Juventus’ unbeaten start and extends a winless run that stretches back to 13 September.
  • Igor Tudor set up Juventus with an unexpected back four, but the visitors lacked precision in the final third and rarely troubled Jean Butez.
  • Centre-back Bremer was unavailable after knee surgery that is set to sideline him for weeks, forcing further changes in defense.
  • With Cesc Fabregas suspended, assistant Dani Guindos directed Como from the touchline, and Juventus now turn to a Champions League visit to Real Madrid on 22 October.
