Juventus Player Ratings vs Parma: American Goals Not Enough for Disappointing Bianconeri

At the Allianz Stadium in Turin, Juventus settled for their sixth draw of the season, this time sharing the spoils with Parma. The visitors took an early lead through their captain Enrico Del Prato, but Weston McKennie replied for the hosts at the half-hour mark. Nevertheless, Simon Sohm restored the Crociati’s lead shortly afterwards. Timothy Weah scored the Old Lady’s second equalizer after the break, but they couldn’t find the winner. So here are our player ratings for Juventus who could only register a disappointing 2-2 draw against Parma.

Juventus (4-2-3-1)

Michele Di Gregorio – 6

While some might argue that the Italian custodian could have done a bit more on the two Parma goals, he prevented a first defeat for the club by denying Gabriel Charpentier from close range.

Andrea Cambiaso – 6

The former Genoa man was wasteful in possession during the first half, but his display comprehensively improved after switching to the left flank.

Federico Gatti – 5.5

The Italy international had a torrid first half, as he was beaten in the air by the smaller Del Prato on the opener. But he atoned himself with a couple of crucial interceptions in the second period.

Danilo – 5

The Juventus captain showcased his vast experience on a few occasions, but his lack of pace is rendering him a liability in Thiago Motta’s system. He was one of the main culprits on the second Parma goal, and his fumbles could have cost his club even more.

Juan Cabal – 6

A so-so display from the Colombian who was passable at the back but offered little to nothing on the attacking phase.

Manuel Locatelli – 6.5

A courageous showing from the Euro 2020 winner who won back possession on the play that led to the second ball. Picked up his teammates with precise passing and kept the ball rolling in the middle of the park.

Khephren Thuram – 6

An energetic performance from the Frenchman who played a vital part in the second Juventus goal. However, his final touch often abandoned him.

Francisco Conceicao – 6.5

The Portuguese was once again the team’s main source of inspiration. Kept his opponents on their toes, but found a solid adversary in Coulibaly. Picked up Weah with a brilliant assist.

Weston McKennie – 6.5

The Texan was struggling to leave his mark on the encounter, but kept his composure to head home the first Juventus goal. Failed to prevent the second Parma goal, but at least he was doing his duty at the back while others were nowhere to be seen.

Timothy Weah – 7

The USMNT star produced an assist with a sublime cross for his compatriot on the first Juventus equalizer and then scored the second himself, but Motta preferred to haul him off early in the second half for Yildiz.

Dusan Vlahovic – 4.5

The Serbian wasted an absolute sitter on the rebound and never managed to make amends. His touch was often heavy and futile.

Substitutes

Nicolò Savona – 6

A solid display at the back from the Juventus youngster who kept Valentin Mihaila and Matteo Cancellieri at bay.

Kenan Yildiz – 5.5

The teenager had a magical cameo against Inter three days ago, but was far less impactful this time.

Teun Koopmeiners – 6

The Dutchman added a quality touch that was sorely missing in the middle of park, but lacked a marquee moment.
