Paraguayan Antonio ‘Tonny’ Sanabria made himself felt with an excellent finish for Torino in the classic against Juventus, although his team ended up losing 4-2 in a game on matchday 24 of the Italian Serie A.
After this victory, the fourth consecutive for the ‘Vecchia Signora’ in the Italian championship, Juve is seventh with 35 points, six behind Atalanta (6th), which occupies a position for the next Conference League.
The Champions zone, which Lazio closes with 45, is now 10 units away for a Juventus that little by little is recovering from the penalty of 15 points imposed by the Italian sports authorities for irregularities in the accounts.
And that things did not start well for Massimiliano Allegri’s men, who saw how their neighbors from ‘Toro’ took the lead with a goal from the Ivorian yann karamoh (2′).
The Colombian John William Squarewith his first goal of the season, equalized for the locals (16 ‘), who again found themselves behind with the goal of Paraguayan Antonio Sanabria (43′), who with great anticipation surpassed the Polish goalkeeper Wojciech Szczesny.

the brazilian defender Danilo rebalanced the balance with a header (45+1′) before another Brazilian Gleison Bremer (71′) and the French Adrien Rabiot (80 ‘) left the three points at Juventus Stadium.
In addition to the victory, the other good news for Juventus was the Paul Pogba comeback almost eleven months after his last official match.
World champion in 2018, Pogba came into play in the 69th minute, when the result was 2-2, although he had no direct impact on the two goals his team saw on the field.
His last game dated back to April 19, 2022, with the Manchester United jersey in the Premier League against Liverpool (4-0 defeat).
With calf problems, the midfielder, who will turn 30 on March 15, had not been able to finish the season with the Red Devils, ending his five years at the Old Trafford club with a bitter taste.
But his return last summer to Juve, where he had already played between 2012 and 2016, did not change his situation at all and Pogba (91 international matches) did not stop accumulating relapses and physical problems (meniscus), which prevented him even participate in the World Cup in Qatar.
