Juventus secured a commanding 3-1 victory over PSV Eindhoven on Tuesday night at the Allianz Stadium in Turin, making a strong statement in their UEFA Champions League opener.
Turkey international Kenan Yildiz set the tone early, opening the scoring with a composed finish from inside the PSV box. The goal extended Yildiz’s remarkable streak, marking a goal in each of his starts for Juventus across Serie A, Coppa Italia, and now the Champions League, drawing comparisons to club legend Alessandro Del Piero for his early impact.
Juventus continued to dominate, and Weston McKennie, the former Leeds United midfielder, doubled the lead in the 27th minute with a clinical close-range finish, cementing the Bianconeri’s early control.
After the interval, Juventus maintained their pressure, with Nicolas Gonzalez converting an assist from Dusan Vlahovic to put the hosts firmly in command. PSV managed a late consolation goal in stoppage time through Ismael Saibari, but by then the damage had long been done.
The win marks a confident start to Juventus’ European campaign under Thiago Motta, as the Old Lady now turns focus back to Serie A, preparing for a high-stakes clash against league leaders Napoli on Saturday.
