Having crashed out of Europe in midweek, Juventus returned to domestic action, but made hard work of a game against Cagliari.

Juventus manager Thiago Motta expressed concern over his side's inconsistency in front of goal after their hard-fought 1-0 win at lowly Cagliari in Serie A on Sunday. Motta watched his team secure a fourth consecutive league win in gritty fashion with a narrow victory in Sardinia but was critical of his side's lack of precision.

Juventus secured a hard-fought 1-0 victory over Cagliari, thanks to an early and only goal from Dusan Vlahovic. The Serbian striker found the net in the opening minutes (12th), giving Juve the lead, which they defended successfully for the rest of the match.
