Dive into Bwin’s post-match review of Bologna 0-1 Juventus in the Serie A on Sunday, 14 December 2025, with stats, key moments and our take on the match.
Juventus secured a 1-0 victory over Bologna in this Serie A encounter. The first half saw both sides probing without breaking the deadlock, with Juventus earning a yellow card for Teun Koopmeiners early on at 19 minutes, while Bologna’s Juan Miranda picked up a booking at 24 minutes, reflecting a tense but goalless opening period. Juventus, coming off a mixed run with a recent loss to Napoli but wins and draws before that, looked to build on their form, while Bologna aimed to extend a patchy streak that included a draw with Lazio and a loss to Cremonese.
The game’s turning point arrived in the second half when Juan Cabal scored for Juventus at 64 minutes, assisted by Kenan Yıldız, giving the visitors the lead. Bologna’s situation worsened with a red card to Torbjørn Heggem at 69 minutes, leaving them a man down and disrupting their rhythm, despite substitutions like Ibrahim Sulemana and Santiago Castro entering at 66 minutes. Juventus managed the game well thereafter, with their recent defensive solidity—evident in draws against Fiorentina and Torino—helping them hold on for the win, as Bologna’s form dipped further with back-to-back home losses.
The match was evenly contested in possession, with Bologna edging it at 51% to Juventus’ 49%, suggesting neither side dominated the ball for long spells, though Bologna’s higher count of 38 successful dribbles compared to Juventus’ 22 indicated they were more effective in individual battles and transitions. Juventus made better use of set pieces with four corners to Bologna’s three, and their single assist underlined the clinical edge that decided the game, while Bologna’s lack of assists highlighted their struggles to convert opportunities.
Discipline played a key role, as Bologna collected three yellow cards and one red, contrasting with Juventus’ single yellow, which likely contributed to the hosts’ frustration in the latter stages. Both teams utilised substitutions effectively, with Bologna making five changes—including Ibrahim Sulemana replacing Lewis Ferguson and Santiago Castro coming on for Thijs Dallinga at 66 minutes, followed by Emil Holm for Nikola Moro and Lorenzo De Silvestri for Nadir Zortea at 73 minutes, and Federico Bernardeschi replacing Jhon Lucumí at 81 minutes—while Juventus used four, such as Juan Cabal for Andrea Cambiaso and Loïs Openda for Jonathan David at 61 minutes, Bremer for Teun Koopmeiners at 76 minutes, and Fabio Miretti for Francisco Conceição at 88 minutes, helping them adapt and secure the result without any penalties or injury-time goals recorded.
The decisive moment came at 64 minutes when Juan Cabal scored Juventus’ only goal, assisted by Kenan Yıldız, breaking the deadlock after a period of pressure from the visitors. Bologna’s challenge intensified shortly after with Torbjørn Heggem’s red card at 69 minutes, which left them short-handed and shifted momentum firmly towards Juventus.
Substitutions influenced the flow, with Juventus introducing Juan Cabal and Loïs Openda at 61 minutes, the former quickly making an impact with his goal, while Bologna responded with changes like Ibrahim Sulemana and Santiago Castro at 66 minutes, though later yellow cards for Ibrahim Sulemana at 90 minutes and Lorenzo De Silvestri at 90+4 minutes compounded their difficulties.
Bologna lined up in a 4-2-3-1 formation, focusing on a solid midfield base that allowed players like Lewis Ferguson and Nikola Moro to support attacks before their substitutions, while Jhon Lucumí provided defensive stability until replaced late on. Thijs Dallinga led the line initially, with Nadir Zortea offering width on the right, and partnerships in the backline were tested after Torbjørn Heggem’s red card disrupted their shape.
Juventus deployed a 3-4-2-1 setup, emphasising defensive resilience with midfielders like Teun Koopmeiners anchoring play until his exit, while Kenan Yıldız operated effectively in an advanced role to create chances. Francisco Conceição added flair on the flanks before being substituted, and the introduction of Juan Cabal strengthened their left side, contributing directly to the winning goal.
Bwin’s Man of the Match was Kenan Yıldız, who stood out for Juventus with his creative influence, providing one assist for the game’s only goal, creating one big chance, and delivering four key passes that kept Bologna’s defence under pressure throughout.
