A very first Kenan Yildiz goal - on his starting debut - combined with super sub Dusan Vlahovic's late winner saw Juventus gift their fans an early Christmas present with victory over Frosinone on Saturday afternoon.
Here are all the standout stas from Matchday 17's win:
GRAND TALLY | Excluding 2004/05 and 2005/06, this is the eighth time that Juventus have collected at least 40 points in the first 17 league games played in the era of three points for a win in Serie A. In the previous seven they have always won the Scudetto (four of which were under Coach Max Allegri).
A STAR IS BORN | Kenan Yildiz today became the youngest foreign goalscorer in the Juventus history in Serie A (18 years and 233 days) – overtaking Marcelo Zalayeta. He is also just the third player born since 2005 to start a Serie A match this season (after A. Ibrahimovic & V. Carboni) and is the first ever player born since 2004 to start a Serie A match for Juventus.
SUPER SUB | Dusan Vlahovic scored a goal as substitute in Serie A for the first time since May 2023 vs Atalanta, and a first away goal since Matchday 1.
WES WITH THE ASSISTS | Weston McKennie has provided two assists in the current Serie A season, having never contributed more assists in a single top-flight campaign.
BRIGHT STARTERS | Only Fiorentina (12) has scored more goals than Juventus (11) in the first 30 minutes of play in the current Serie A campaign.
