Juventus suffered a dismal 2-0 defeat at Como on Sunday afternoon, dropping out of the Serie A top four after a fourth consecutive winless outing. Pressure continues to build on manager Igor Tudor, with the Turin giants losing further ground on early pacesetters Napoli and Inter.<\/strong><\/p>\n Como took an early lead through Marc-Oliver Kempf. Left unmarked on the far post, the German center-back turned home Nico Paz\u2019s cross in the sixth minute to put Juventus on the back foot. Faced with a narrow halftime deficit, Tudor\u2019s charges struggled to find their rhythm in the second half.<\/span><\/p>\n Unable to create clear-cut chances, Juventus eventually conceded a fatal second goal as Paz proved his burgeoning talent with a sublime solo goal to seal the Bianconeri\u2019s fate. Without further ado, let\u2019s look at our player ratings.<\/span><\/p>\n Michele Di Gregorio \u2013 6\/10<\/strong><\/p>\n Helpless on the line, there was nothing he could do to stop Kempf from scoring. However, he made three saves afterward to keep his side in the game until the end.<\/span><\/p>\n Pierre Kalulu \u2013 6\/10<\/strong><\/p>\n Deployed as a classic right-back, the Frenchman fared well defensively but contributed nothing to Juventus\u2019 attack despite occasional forward runs. He should\u2019ve been at the back post to avert the danger.<\/span><\/p>\n Daniele Rugani \u2013 5\/10<\/strong><\/p>\n He was supposed to mark Kempf, yet he was nowhere near, allowing the German defender to slam the ball into the back of the net from point-blank. Another unconvincing performance from the Italian!<\/span><\/p>\n Lloyd Kelly \u2013 6\/10<\/strong><\/p>\n Though he performed slightly better than his center-back partner, the Englishman didn\u2019t inspire much confidence. However, he showed discipline after picking up an early booking.<\/span><\/p>\n Andrea Cambiaso \u2013 5\/10<\/strong><\/p>\n Juventus desperately needed his darting runs today, but the Italian full-back rarely ventured forward and struggled to make an impact in the final third. Too passive and too far from Paz for Como\u2019s second goal.<\/span><\/p>\n Teun Koopmeiners \u2013 4\/10<\/strong><\/p>\n Merely a shadow of his former self, the Dutch star looked up the creek without a paddle, struggling to impose his usual influence and repeatedly losing the midfield battle against Como midfielders.<\/span><\/p>\n Manuel Locatelli \u2013 5\/10<\/strong><\/p>\n Despite rarely giving the ball away and providing an additional cover to his backline, the Juventus skipper failed to provide the spark his side badly needed to break down Como\u2019s sturdy defense.<\/span><\/p>\n Khephren Thuram \u2013 5\/10<\/strong><\/p>\n Too much imprecision from the French ace, whose passing and decision-making let him down throughout the match. Though he showed glimpses of his athleticism and drive, his overall impact was minimal.<\/span><\/p>\n Francisco Conceicao \u2013 6\/10<\/strong><\/p>\n The diminutive winger was arguably Juventus\u2019 liveliest performer at the Sinigaglia Stadium, yet it wasn\u2019t nearly enough to trouble Como\u2019s rock-solid back three. There was no end product from the Portuguese starlet today.<\/span><\/p>\n Kenan Yildiz \u2013 4\/10<\/strong><\/p>\n A frustrating afternoon for the prodigious forward, who was not the difference-maker the visitors were looking for, often finding himself isolated on the wing.<\/span><\/p>\n Jonathan David \u2013 3\/10<\/strong><\/p>\n There\u2019s no light at the end of the tunnel for the Canadian striker. Completely cut off from the rest of the pack, he endured another anonymous display.<\/span><\/p>\n Weston McKennie \u2013 4\/10<\/strong><\/p>\n Dusan Vlahovic \u2013 6\/10<\/strong><\/p>\n Joao Mario \u2013 N\/A<\/strong><\/p>\nJuventus (4-3-3)<\/strong><\/h2>\n
