The Old Lady suffered their first loss of the season on the visitors’ ground, with the loss of a point underlined by an own goal in the 95th minute.

The charges of the now iconic coach Massimiliano Allegri did not record a point from their last league match.

They were handed their first defeat of the season by home side Sassuolo. Moreover, the team from the Italian mainland triumphed over the favourite with a final two-goal lead. However, the visitors’ defence played a big part in this.

One of the candidates for his own goal of the season was provided by stopper Federico Gatti, who sent the ball behind goalkeeper Wojciech Szczesny at the very end of the match. Instead of a final push, the team from Turin booked their ticket back without points.

The offensive activity of Brazilian Matheus Henrique, who was the main architect of Gatti’s fatal blunder, paid off to the maximum. No wonder his teammates celebrated the striker afterwards as if he had scored the goal himself.

The unfortunate incident by the Old Lady only brought the match to a close with a final score of 4: 2 in Sassuolo’s view.

After five rounds played, the team is in a quiet mid-table position in 12th place with 6 points. In addition, apart from the victorious encounter with Verona, this was only the second point gain for coach Dionisi’s team.

This is certainly not the case in the north of Italy, as the Turin big club has not yet convinced of its superior qualities even at the beginning of this season. As a result, they are currently in fourth position, five points behind leaders Inter.
