Juventus earned a hard-fought 3,2 win over Bodo Glimt in the Champions League, claiming their first European victory of the season. Both sides entered the fixture without a win in the competition, and with the clear skies in Bodo offering a rare moment of favourable conditions, it was an opportunity for each team to pursue all three points. Juventus were aware of the challenge ahead, yet their manager needed a result, and his team began the match with purpose.
As expected, the hosts delivered a spirited display and carried confidence into the contest. Their early pressure was rewarded when Ole Blomberg opened the scoring, capitalising on a Juventus side that had failed to convert its own chances. Vasilije Adzic and Francisco Conceicao both missed notable opportunities, while the Bodo Glimt goalkeeper produced several outstanding saves to frustrate the visitors further.
Juventus returned from the interval with greater intensity and were quickly rewarded when Lois Openda scored the equaliser. This shifted the momentum firmly in their favour, and shortly afterwards, a potential penalty involving Fabio Miretti was dismissed following a VAR review. Juventus continued to push, and Weston McKennie found the next breakthrough, completing the turnaround.
Despite taking the lead, Juventus were unable to relax. Bodo Glimt maintained their determination and eventually levelled from the penalty spot, ensuring a tense conclusion to the match. Juventus, however, responded decisively once again, and Jonathan David struck what proved to be the winning goal, sealing their long-awaited European victory.
This result arrives at a crucial time for Juventus, offering renewed confidence as they continue their Champions League campaign. Although the performance showed areas that still require improvement, the resilience displayed will be seen as an encouraging sign. With their first European win secured, Juventus now have a platform on which to build stronger momentum going forward.
