Juventus found themselves competing at a more modest European level this season, participating in the UEFA Europa League. From the outset, they made it clear they were no mere visitors at this stage, asserting their superiority early on.
The hosts wasted little time, netting three goals against Nijmegen before halftime without exerting too much effort. The remainder of the match lost both its tension and intrigue, with the only question being whether Juventus would push their lead even further. They certainly did.
