Juventus drew 2-2 with Stade Rennais in the Europa League, after initially taking the lead and then coming back from being 2-1 down. The match saw VAR intervene, canceling a goal scored by Jhon Lucumí. According to Black & White & Read All Over, this was a significant moment as it changed the outcome from a potential 3-2 win to a draw. Juventus had started well, using a quick counter to score.

The draw marked Juventus' first dropped points in the Europa League this season, causing them to drop from first to seventh in the table. Black & White & Read All Over notes that this fluctuation highlights the impact of dropping points early in the league phase. Juventus faces AZ Alkmaar next in Europe, potentially leading to two straight Europa League fixtures without a win. The team also has three Serie A games in between.

The performance was criticized by Black & White & Read All Over, who pointed out that Juventus' initial strong start gave way to usual mistakes and problems, with Randal Kolo Muani struggling and the team being forced to chase the game. The publication questions the sustainability of Juventus' current form and whether it will be enough to turn the season around, also wondering about the length of coach Luciano Spalletti's leash.

Source context

When Juventus jumped out to a 1-0 lead after all of five minutes on Thursday night, there were hopes that this was going to another Europa League outing that turned into a positive amidst some very frustrating days. Once Juventus fell behind 2-1 right before the half, it was just a reminder that it could end up being more of the same. Suddenly, all of the late-game pressure as Stade Rennais hunkered down to try and conserve a point (at least), actually paid off and second-half sub Jhon Lucumí was the latest Juve defender in the early stages of this 2026-27 season to make a big impact on the other side of the field, too.
