Juventus defeated Frosinone 1-0 at the Stadio Benito Stirpe on Sunday, securing victory in the opening round of the Serie A regular season. The match was already decided at half-time, with Bremer’s 22nd-minute goal giving Juventus the lead and ultimately the points.

Bremer settles a controlled first half

The decisive moment arrived in the 22nd minute. Francisco Conceição provided the assist for Bremer, who scored Juventus’ only goal of the afternoon. The goal gave the visitors a platform to manage the match, while Frosinone were unable to find an equaliser before the interval or after it.

Juventus dictated much of the game through possession and distribution. Luciano Spalletti’s side held 65% of the ball and completed 370 passes, including 312 accurate passes, compared with Frosinone’s 198 total passes and 132 accurate passes. The visitors also won 11 corners to Frosinone’s two, reinforcing their territorial advantage.

Juventus create more but cannot add a second

The scoreline remained narrow despite a clear statistical advantage for Juventus. They recorded 18 total shots, 13 from inside the box, and five shots on target. Frosinone managed eight attempts overall, with six inside the box and two on target. Juventus’ expected-goals figure of 1.95 was also considerably higher than Frosinone’s 0.33, although the single-goal margin meant the result stayed potentially vulnerable until the final whistle.

Frosinone made four changes during the second half as Massimiliano Alvini looked to alter the contest. R. Schmid and S. Fini were replaced by P. Masini and A. Zerbin in the 59th minute, followed by M. Cichella and I. Monterisi making way for L. Hasa and A. Oyono eight minutes later. Juventus responded with changes of their own in the 69th minute, bringing on A. Cambiaso for Z. Celik and E. Zhegrova for Conceição, the scorer’s provider.

Discipline and standout performer

The match included four recorded yellow-card incidents. Frosinone’s R. Schmid was booked in the 43rd minute and G. Calvani in the 90th, while Juventus players Z. Celik and A. Cambiaso were cautioned in the 50th and 81st minutes respectively.

Bremer was the standout performer, receiving the highest rating of 8.0. In addition to scoring the winning goal, the Juventus defender registered one shot on target, two key passes and one tackle across 76 minutes. Manuel Locatelli also rated highly at 7.5, while Giorgio Cittadini led Frosinone’s individual efforts with a 7.2 rating and four tackles.

Following the result, the supplied Serie A standings list Juventus eighth and Frosinone 17th, with both teams shown on zero points from zero games. No recent form data was available for either side, so the 1-0 result serves as the recorded outcome of this opening-round fixture.
