CHIEVO VERONA - JUVENTUS 0 - 4 Álvaro Morata (6') Álvaro Morata (40') Alex Sandro (61') Paul Pogba (67') MATCHDAY 22 Sunday, January 31st, 2016 - 12:30 PM Marc'Antonio Bentegodi stadium, Verona Referee: Daniele Doveri Allegri: I care about the Scudetto, not the winning streak After Juventus made it 12 straight league victories in a row against Chievo, the coach urged his players to concentrate on their ultimate goal of a fifth consecutive title. http://www.goal.com/en/news/723/serie-a/2016/01/31/19853522/allegri-i-dont-care-about-winning-streak?ICID=TP_HN_1 Jan 31, 2016 Juventus coach Massimiliano Allegri says he does not care about his side equaling the club's run of consecutive Serie A victories, but praised their convincing display in Sunday's 4-0 win at Chievo. Alvaro Morata scored twice in the first half at the Stadio Marc'Antonio Bentegodi before Alex Sandro and Paul Pogba completed the triumph in Verona. It matched Juve's record run of 12 successive league victories in a single season - set during 2013-14 - and ensures they keep the pressure on Napoli in the title race. Allegri was thrilled to see his side continue the recovery from a woeful start to their Scudetto defence, but stressed the winning streak does not impress him as he only cares about winning the title. "I do not care," he told reporters when asked for his thoughts on his side's incredible form. "I'd like to go for 20 straight wins, but even then maybe we would not win the Scudetto. "The run is proving successful, although I did not expect it happen so quickly. There are still 16 games left, but we are in a good period and now we have to continue like this and improve further. "There is still room for individual growth, both mentally and physically. Just see the final shot from Pogba, when he took the long pass down and hit it hard and hit the crossbar when he could have placed the ball. "We must not forget what or where we were after 10 games. That will remind us to keep the pressure high. "The team played a good game from a technical point of view and in terms of the intensity in our play. "There was only one error in the finale, which needed some great goalkeeping from Buffon, but it was a nice match." Genoa are next up for Juve, who face Bayern Munich in the last 16 of the Champions League and still have a Coppa Italia semi-final second leg to come against Inter in March. http://www.goal.com/en-gb/tables/serie-a/13?ICID=SP_TN_127

CHIEVO VERONA - JUVENTUS 0 - 4 Álvaro Morata (6') Álvaro Morata (40') Alex Sandro (61') Paul Pogba (67') MATCHDAY 22 Sunday, January 31st, 2016 - 12:30 PM Marc'Antonio Bentegodi stadium, Verona Referee: Daniele Doveri Juventus 4 - Chievo Verona 0: Initial reaction and random observations Juventus are in first place for the next couple of hours at the very minimum. That's pretty cool IMHO. http://www.blackwhitereadallover.com/2016/1/31/10878588/juventus-chievo-verona-2016-serie-a-round-22-final-score-result-initial-reaction Jan 31, 2016 For 20 consecutive outings, Álvaro Morata was looking at a zero in the goal department after each game he played in. That came to an end midweek with his brace in the Coppa Italia against Inter Milan. And, the convenient line of thinking was posing the question as to whether Morata, who has proven to be a streaky goal scorer, could build off what was arguably his best game of the 2015-16 season knowing that Juventus were going to be without Mario Mandzukic until late-February at the very least. There's only one thing to say after Morata recorded his first brace of the week: "Another one." Okay, so maybe there's an easier way to say it and not quoting rappers. Yes, Morata was up to his goal-scoring tricks again, recording his second brace in as many games to lead the offensive onslaught against a Chievo side that didn't really have an answer once they fell behind within the first five minutes at the Bentegodi. Squawka Football ✔ @Squawka Álvaro Morata's last 2 matches for Juventus: 4 goals. Álvaro Morata's previous 28 matches: 3 goals. Back in form. Me thinks we're onto something here, folks. Morata's return to form can make things awfully enticing up front. Paulo Dybala didn't get a goal against Chievo on Sunday afternoon, but he continued to show that he's capable of creating SO MANY chances for both himself and his teammates. Throw in the fact Paul Pogba and Alex Sandro both rounded out the scoring after Morata gave Juve a 2-0 lead before the half and the average age of the those who recorded goals against Chievo were barely able to drink legally in the United States. I feel safe in saying that this was an absolute dismantling if there ever was one. Some may say that Juve's 3-0 win over Inter midweek was the best of the season. But Juventus could have scored five, six or even seven goals on Sunday afternoon if it wasn't for a handful of shots clanging off the woodwork. That's how you take care of business against a team that has historically been an absolute pest whether the game is in Turin or at the Bentegodi. They left no doubt about it both on the field and on the scoreboard. They didn't mess around with a one-goal lead for very long or give us heart attacks late in the second half. There was none of that. Instead, it was just coasting at the end because of the dominating effort they put forward in the first 75 or 80 minutes. That game, I liked that game. Random thoughts and observations This was the first time Juventus were the black-into-white shorts to go along with their black and gold third kit. I hope it's the last time that combination happens. I look as though Juve taped two different shorts together and thought it would look good. It didn't. Black and gold is simple and clean. Just go with that, equipment managers at Juventus. That is my lone suggestion to you right now. When it came to just the sheer quality of passing, this might have been Juventus' game of the season. That Dybala-Pogba combination above is one of the best examples of it. But just the wide array of quality and ability to make something happen almost every time he's on the ball is remarkable. That's the sign of somebody who's truly not just on insane form, but blossoming into one of the best young players in the world. I think we can now say Dybala is becoming exactly one of those. Unless Allegri has an idea of resting Dybala midweek against Genoa or something was up that we don't know about, it's interesting — or some other word choice, if you want — that the young Argentine played a full 90 minutes instead of being subbed off for Simone Zaza in the second half. If there's one player you don't want to risk getting injured in a blowout right now, Dybala has to be close to the top of the list if he isn't already. It turned out to be okay and nothing to worry about, so no beef here, Max. Instead, Allegri's last sub was of the game was bringing on Simone Padoin. When you're up 4-0 and have 10 minutes to go, I guess bringing on the Human Victory Cigar is the way to go. Oh, and he tried to score on a 30-yard curler. When you're Padoin, you do what you want. Back to Pogba for a second. When he's on his game like he was on Sunday, he's simply unreal. If it wasn't the controlling of the ball it was his passing. If it wasn't his passing then it was the plethora of scoring chances for himself and his teammates. His goal was absolutely gorgeous, a beautiful dribbling effort that highlighted what was easily one of his best games of the season. He can dab all he wants with the way he's playing right now. Dab, dab, dab. All we're gonna do is dab. Via WhoScored: Pogba had five shots on target, Chievo had six shots total. Is that good? (For Juventus, that is.) Juventus' defense has yet to allow a goal since Gigi Buffon turned 38 years old. I'll leave you all with this simple question: Juventus is a team that's pretty fun to watch right now, aren't they? Yep, that's what happens when you win 12 consecutive Serie A games that seems you go from the bottom third of the table to the top spot in the span of three months. It's not that long ago Juve were looking like a team that were totally out of whack. Now, they are blowing vine videos like it's no big deal.

Jan 31, 2016 In-form Juventus were looking for a 12th consecutive Serie A win when they travelled to face Chievo on Sunday. With Mario Mandzukic injured, responsibility fell to Alvaro Morata to lead the line, and the Spanish forward duly delivered, putting Juve ahead after just six minutes. Juve Stats @juvestats1897 Morata gives Juve the lead in his 49th Serie A game. Shortly before half-time, Morata had a second, once again finishing from close range after some fine build-up play. Alex Sandro added a third for Juve after 61 minutes, finishing well after Paulo Dybala and Paul Pogba had combined. Andrea Poma @andypoma87 La rete di Alex Sandro ma il tutto è partito da quel piede magico di Dybala! And Pogba got on the scoresheet himself six minutes later, shimmying his way into the box before slotting home. The Frenchman almost added another in the final minutes, but his shot came back off the post after a sublime first touch. That was how it finished, Juve's 12th consecutive Serie A win sending them top of the table. Final score: Chievo 0-4 Juventus http://www.goal.com/en-gb/tables/serie-a/13?ICID=SP_TN_127

CHIEVO VERONA - JUVENTUS 0 - 4 Álvaro Morata (6') Álvaro Morata (40') Alex Sandro (61') Paul Pogba (67') MATCHDAY 22 Sunday, January 31st, 2016 - 12:30 PM Marc'Antonio Bentegodi stadium, Verona Referee: Daniele Doveri Alvaro Morata scores twice as Juventus crush Chievo Verona http://www.espnfc.co.uk/italian-serie-a/match/432053/chievo-verona-juventus/report Jan 31, 2016 Juventus strolled to victory over Chievo in Verona to put pressure on title rivals Napoli to respond with a 12th consecutive win. Alvaro Morata's first-half double put Juventus in control and Alex Sandro and Paul Pogba added to the lead after the break. The margin could have been even greater but an emphatic result left Napoli to kick off against Empoli trailing the reigning four-time champions by a point. Juve took less than six minutes to open the scoring as Stephan Lichtsteiner delivered a perfect low cross and Morata got goal-side of full-back Nicolas Frey to finish from six yards. Pogba was just off target with a ferocious long-range drive and Lichtsteiner's cross eluded a sliding Paulo Dybala. Dybala fired straight at keeper Albano Bizzarri, Sami Khedira unable to capitalise on the rebound, before Nicola Rigoni forced Gianluigi Buffon into his only save of the first half. Juventus finally doubled their lead five minutes before the break, Dybala and Khedira linking up and the latter squaring across goal to serve up a mirror image of Morata's first finish. The two-goal half-time margin arguably undersold the visitors' dominance and a third came on the hour when Lichtsteiner and Pogba combined to set up the chance and Alex Sandro stroked home left-footed. Lichtsteiner failed to complete a one-two to Pogba in the box but the France star was not to be denied and slotted the fourth goal past Bizzarri after jinking past Dario Dainelli on the edge of the box. Alex Sandro sidefooted against the crossbar after a patient passing move from a Juve side now toying with their opponents, although Leonardo Bonucci's stumble almost gifted Chievo a breakaway goal. Buffon denied Roberto Inglese and Paul-Jose M'Poku wasted the follow-up chance. Morata curled just wide and had another effort tipped over by Bizzarri as he sought a hat-trick, while Bonucci was just off target with a deft flick. Pogba lashed an injury-time effort against the inside of the right-hand post and Dybala was again wasteful after Morata recycled the ball. http://www.goal.com/en-gb/tables/serie-a/13?ICID=SP_TN_127

Jan 31, 2016 Juventus produced a stunning performance to beat Chievo 4-0 at the Stadio Marc’Antonio Bentegodi on Sunday afternoon. Juventus started the game in a fiery fashion and took the lead in the sixth minute through Spaniard Alvaro Morata. The Bianconeri were in complete control throughout the first half and Morata deservedly scored a second in the 40th minute. Alex Sandro sealed the win for Juventus in the 60th minute before Paul Pogba added a beautiful fourth. The Old Lady began like a team that looked full of confidence and opened the scoring within the first six minutes. Stephan Lichtsteiner drove at Nicolas Frey before firing in a low cross, which was met at the back post by Morata, who tapped in his third goal of the week. 2o minutes later Juventus should have doubled their lead. Sami Khedira broke into penalty box and smartly pulled the ball back to Paulo Dybala, however the Argentine struck his effort straight at Albano Bizarri. The Mussi Volanti were proving to be feeble opposition as the Bianconeri doubled their lead just before half time. Dybala darted into the penalty box and slipped in the overlapping Khedira. The German then delicately picked out Morata, who once again just had to tap-in to score. The second half started in similar fashion to the first, with Juventus in full control and 15 minutes into the half, the Bianconeri sealed their 12th win a row. Lichtsteiner played a nice one-two with Dybala, before charging into the penalty box and sliding the ball back to Pogba. The Frenchman then poked the ball to Alex Sandro who thundered a shot past Bizarri. After that assist Pogba scored his own excellent goal. After picking the ball outside the box, he skipped past two Chievo defenders before elegantly curling the ball into the bottom corner of the net. The result leaves Juventus temporarily in first place, whereas Chievo stay in 10th. http://www.goal.com/en-gb/tables/serie-a/13?ICID=SP_TN_127

Mario Mandzukic, Kwadwo Asamoah, Mario Lemina and suspended Patrice Evra missed out. Perparim Hetemaj, Simone Pepe, Riccardo Meggiorini, Alessandro Gamberini and banned Bostjan Cesar were absent. Chievo had beaten Juve just once in 25 top flight meetings, home and away, but drew 1-1 in Turin back in September. Alvaro Morata ended his 20-game goal drought in a 3-0 Coppa Italia demolition of Inter midweek and proved what a difference confidence can make, as he broke the deadlock here after just six minutes. Stephan Lichtsteiner rolled a low cross all the way to the back post for the Spaniard to tap in. Paul Pogba blasted a half-volley inches wide and Paulo Dybala stung Albano Bizzarri’s gloves before Sami Khedira missed the follow-up. Juventus were absolutely dominant and doubled their lead with another well-worked move when Dybala threaded through for Khedira to roll across and Morata was in the right place for another tap-in. He’d failed to score since October and suddenly had four goals in a week. Chievo had their best chance of the game so far straight after the restart, a Valter Birsa free kick whipped across the face of goal with Fabrizio Cacciatore and Roberto Inglese just failing to get the touch. It was a more even second half, but Juve still added a third goal with a sweeping move that saw Lichtsteiner roll across for Pogba and letting it go through for on-rushing Alex Sandro to smash under the bar from 12 yards. Pogba skipped past Dario Dainelli as if the defender wasn’t even there to comfortably pass the ball into the bottom corner for 4-0. Alex Sandro thumped the crossbar from close range and Gigi Buffon kept the clean sheet intact by rushing out to block Inglese after a Leonardo Bonucci error. The Bianconeri kept on pushing, as Morata forced a save and Bonucci turned wide. With the last kick of the game, Pogba controlled a long Bonucci pass with a marvellous first touch only to spin and shoot on to the underside of the bar, then Dybala missed the follow-up.

Barcelona Set To Challenge Juventus For Chelsea Winger http://forzaitalianfootball.com/2016/01/barcelona-set-to-challenge-juventus-for-chelsea-winger/? Jan 31, 2016 Juventus may face stiff competition from Spanish giants Barcelona in their bid to sign Chelsea winger Juan Cuadrado. Having joined the Bianconeri on a season-long loan in the summer, the club had already expressed their willingness to make the deal permanent and allegedly came close to sealing a deal at the start of January. However, Don Balon have now reported that the reigning European champions have reignited their previous interest in the player and that his agent has already spoken to the Catalan club about a potential move to La Liga. The versatile midfielder originally departed Serie A from Fiorentina last January, as he moved to Premier League side Chelsea for a fee of €30 million, although he was soon allowed to leave London after failing to cement a place in the Blues starting XI. Since switching to Turin in August, the 27-year-old has made a total of 16 appearances in Serie A, scoring two goals and assisting three.

CHIEVO VERONA - JUVENTUS 0 - 4 Álvaro Morata (6') Álvaro Morata (40') Alex Sandro (61') Paul Pogba (67') MATCHDAY 22 Sunday, January 31st, 2016 - 12:30 PM Marc'Antonio Bentegodi stadium, Verona Referee: Daniele Doveri Chievo 0-4 Juventus: Pogba and Morata run the show in easy victory The former Real Madrid man netted twice while the French midfielder scored and set up another in a simple victory for Massimiliano Allegri's side. http://www.goal.com/en/match/chievo-vs-juventus/2120591/report Jan 31, 2016 Alvaro Morata and Paul Pogba were the stars of the show for Juventus on Sunday as they beat Chievo 4-0 to record a 12th consecutive Serie A win. Morata scored twice on Wednesday as Juve earned a 3-0 first-leg advantage against Inter in the Coppa Italia semi-finals and the striker took his tally for the season to seven in all competitions on Sunday as the champions equalled their record for consecutive league wins in a single season. Juve began Sunday two points behind league leaders Napoli - who play Empoli later in the day - but made an ideal start at the Stadio Marc'Antonio Bentegodi when Morata tapped in Stephan Lichtsteiner's cross from the right just six minutes in. In their first outing since top scorer Alberto Paloschi's departure for Swansea City, mid-table Chievo struggled to ask questions of Massimiliano Allegri's side and fell further behind when Morata doubled his tally on the stroke of half-time. With Juve well on their way to maximum points, Alex Sandro and Paul Pogba added further gloss to a result that was never in doubt with quickfire goals after the hour, as Allegri's men returned to Turin with their revival in full effect. While Juve were without injured striker Mario Mandzukic, Chievo coach Rolando Maran replaced Paloschi with Paul-Jose M'Poku following the striker's exit on Friday. Alex Sandro came in for the suspended Patrice Evra at left-back and, after the Brazilian fired over early on, Morata handed the visitors a sixth-minute lead with a close-range finish following Lichtsteiner's cross from the right. As Juve dominated the opening half-hour, Pogba twice went close to doubling the advantage with long-range efforts, while Chievo struggled to offer a threat aside from Nicola Rigoni's effort, which was comfortably saved by Gianluigi Buffon. The reigning champions' dominance was further rewarded when Morata doubled the lead with a carbon copy of his opener, as Sami Khedira collected Paulo Dybala's pass before squaring for the Spaniard to convert. Khedira was replaced by Stefano Sturaro at the break, having appeared to suffer a knock midway through the first half, with the Bianconeri staying on top after the restart. Chievo claimed a point at Juventus Stadium in the reverse fixture, while the champions were in the midst of their early-season malaise, and Ivan Radovanovic sent a shot wide as the hosts sought a way back into the game. However, Alex Sandro added a third to remove any doubt of where the points were heading. Pogba showed composure inside the box to pivot on the ball and play in the full-back who calmly slotted past Albano Bizzarri. With Allegri's team fully in the groove, Pogba deservedly got in on the act with arguably the pick of the goals, turning away from Dario Dainelli before calmly rolling the ball beyond a helpless Bizzarri. Juve could have extended their lead further when the dangerous Alex Sandro and Pogba each rattled the woodwork in the latter stages as Allegri's men saw out a convincing win with ease. http://www.goal.com/en-gb/tables/serie-a/13?ICID=SP_TN_127
