Juventus needed patience more than fireworks at the Allianz Stadium on Saturday, 29 August 2026, with Parma holding firm at 0-0 through a scrappy first half. The hosts kept the ball for long spells and racked up chance after chance, but the breakthrough wouldn't come until after the break. Once it did, the floodgates didn't exactly open, but the control never wavered, and Juventus closed it out 2-0. Manuel Locatelli was at the heart of everything good about the home side's play, dictating tempo from midfield and picking up the man of the match award with an 8.3 rating for his troubles. Twenty-one shots to four tells its own story about how one-sided this really was, even if the scoreboard stayed goalless for so long. Parma had their moments on the counter and forced a few saves, but they were always chasing shadows against a side that piled on ten corners to their two. Three points, a clean sheet, and a statement of intent for Juventus as the new season gets going.
