Randal Kolo Muani's Late Penalty Lifts Juventus to Narrow Win Over Como

The French forward, on loan from PSG, continues his record-breaking form with five goals in three Serie A matches.

  • Juventus secured a 2-1 win against Como in Serie A, with Randal Kolo Muani scoring both goals, including an 89th-minute penalty.
  • Kolo Muani became the first Juventus player since Roberto Baggio in 1990 to score in his first three Serie A matches, now tallying five goals in three games.
  • Despite the victory, Juventus struggled to dominate, with Como frequently threatening and leveling the game just before halftime through Assane Diao's header.
  • Manager Thiago Motta praised Kolo Muani's impact but emphasized the need for the team and the player to continue improving ahead of upcoming challenges, including a Champions League playoff against PSV Eindhoven.
  • The win temporarily moves Juventus to fourth place in the Serie A standings, one point ahead of Fiorentina and Lazio, who both have games in hand.
