For Thiago Motta’s Juventus, the 0-0 draw with Roma was a hard-earned point that kept them unbeaten.
For Daniele De Rossi’s Roma, it was a positive step after a tough start to the season.
On Sunday in Serie A, Juventus and Roma drew 0-0 at Juventus’ home ground, with each team managing only one shot on target.
Roma had more of the ball early on, but Juventus became more threatening as the game went on, especially with Dusan Vlahovic.
De Rossi initially kept former Juventus player Paulo Dybala on the bench but brought him on midway through the second half.
Dybala, who recently turned down an offer from Saudi Arabia, didn’t make much impact as both teams slowed down on a warm night in Turin.
Juventus now has seven points, tying them with Inter Milan, Torino, and Udinese. This is Motta’s first season with Juventus after coming from Bologna.
Roma, which is still winless and coming off a disappointing loss to Empoli, has two points in De Rossi’s second season after taking over from Jose Mourinho in January.
Roma, which was more offensive last season, has only scored once in three games this season.
In another match, Udinese won 1-0 against newly promoted Como with a first-half goal from Brenner. Como’s Patrick Cutrone missed a late penalty.
