Sassuolo beat Juventus 3-2 after late drama, Napoli return to winning ways

On September 13, Juventus suffered a 3-2 defeat to Sassuolo in a thrilling Serie A match, while Napoli ended their three-game losing streak with a 1-0 home win against Bologna. Both teams entered the match with inconsistent starts to the season, as Juventus had only seven points from four games, placing them eighth in the table, and Napoli were 10th with six points.

In the 65th minute, Sassuolo took the lead when Nemanja Matic delivered a precise pass to Sebastiano Esposito, who scored a one-touch finish. Juventus equalized in the 82nd minute after a misjudged cross by Sassuolo goalkeeper Arijanet Muric allowed Edon Zhegrova to score from close range. The hosts seemed to have secured victory in the 89th minute when Darryl Bakola set up Kieron Bowie, who curled the ball into the corner.

However, Zhegrova sealed the win for Sassuolo with a late goal in the 90th minute, four minutes into stoppage time, with Vasilije Adzic curling in a stunning finish to complete the victory.
