Overview
- Juventus overturned an 18th-minute deficit to win 2-1 at Celta Vigo on Thursday, with Nick Woltemade equalising early in the second half and Randal Kolo Muani heading the stoppage-time winner from Andrea Cambiaso’s cross.
- Celta opened the scoring through Hugo Álvarez after a slick team move, and Juventus’ sluggish first-half display drew public criticism from coach Luciano Spalletti.
- Spalletti praised his side’s willingness to take risks after the break and credited his substitutions for changing the game, while also warning the team to raise technical standards.
- Francisco Conceicao publicly denied reports of a touchline confrontation after his substitution, saying he did not argue with staff and simply went to the dressing room to change.
- The result leaves Juventus top of their Europa League group with six points from two matches and underlines reliance on impact substitutes and the need to convert European momentum into steadier domestic form.
