Juventus won the Italian Cup 2023/2024, after a very difficult match against an opponent who tried in every way to ruin the Juventus party. In the end, Vlahovic’s lead after just 4 minutes of play was enough to win the 15th Italian Cup in Juventus history.
The defensive phase of the Old Lady was fundamental, showing an impeccable performance. The captain was obviously leading the Juventus rearguard Danilo. The Brazilian defender did everything he could to be available again after suffering a hamstring injury in the match against Roma, which was resolved in just over a week.
After yesterday’s great performance, we can be certain that the injury is now a thing of the past: Danilo, in fact, proved to be fundamental in winning the Cup, with providential interventions in very complicated moments of the match. In a young and inexperienced Juventus, the Brazilian captain’s leadership proved providential in guiding his teammates to perfection. The defender’s great performance
black and white is summarized in its data. Certainly the most important statistic is the one linked to recovered balls, which are 22: this is the seasonal record for Danilo who stopped at 20 recovered balls, achieved against Atalanta in the championship. Even as regards intercepted balls, it is a seasonal record: in total there were 14.
In terms of defensive duels, the captain faced a total of 6, with 100% success. Danilo raised the 26th trophy of his career in the sky of Rome, but this time as a protagonist because he is the first as captain of Juventus. He is the first Brazilian captain to win a trophy with the black and white shirt and the first foreign captain to do so after 60 years.
