Juventus Defeats Monza 2-0, Clinches Serie A Top Four Spot

Juventus boosted their Champions League hopes with a 2-0 victory over Monza, thanks to first-half goals from Nico Gonzalez and Randal Kolo Muani. The win moved Juventus up to fourth place in Serie A, overtaking Bologna ahead of their next fixture. Despite being reduced to ten men after Kenan Yildiz received a red card for violent conduct just before halftime, Juventus maintained control and secured their 16th clean sheet of the season. Under coach Igor Tudor, the team demonstrated resilience, matching a club record by winning his first three home Serie A games. Monza, meanwhile, struggled to create clear chances despite their numerical advantage and now face increased risk of relegation, with their coach Alessandro Nesta suffering a fifth consecutive loss. Yildiz's dismissal marked him as the youngest Juventus player sent off in Serie A since 2010, but it did not deter the Bianconeri from sealing a crucial win.
