Because Cristiano Ronaldo has not recovered from his injury, young talent Moise Kean replaced his senior superstar to lead Juventus' attack.
Cagliari played very well at home in Serie A 2018 - 2019, this team had a series of 3 consecutive wins at Sardegna Arena before facing Juventus in round 30. That is why Cagliari entered the match with great determination in the hope of getting points.
However, against a Juventus side that needed points to end the 2018-19 Serie A as soon as possible, Cagliari did not show much. In the 22nd minute, Leonardo Bonucci poured cold water on the home team's head, when he headed a powerful header from Bernardeschi's corner kick to open the score for the "Old Diem" of Turin.
After conceding the goal, Cagliari raised their formation to find an equalizer. The home team put significant pressure on Szczesny's goal. Unfortunately, the final shots of the strikers on the home team's side at Sardegna Arena lacked the necessary accuracy. The score of 1-0 was maintained until the end of the first half.
In the second half, Cagliari continued to attack, but the match scenario did not change much. Juventus still played bravely, proving to be especially dangerous in their set pieces and counter-attacks.
When the Cagliari players were stuck in scoring, in the stands of the Sardegna Arena, a part of the home team's fans had an unsightly action, when they discriminated against Moise Kean and Matuidi of Juventus.
The mocking of a part of Cagliari fans made Moise Kean and Matuidi feel frustrated. In the 85th minute, Juventus organized a methodical attack on the right wing, welcoming a favorable cross from Bentancur on the right wing, Moise Kean had a smart run and finished in a favorable position to put the home team's net.
After scoring against Cagliari, Moise Kean celebrated with a challenging attitude to the home team's fans. The young star's actions on Juventus' side caused the final minutes of the match to lose their image and meaning, as the excessists in the Sardegna Arena continued to make harsher discriminatory statements.
With a 2-0 overall victory, Juventus continued to dominate the top of the table with 81 points after 30 matches, 18 points ahead of the second-placed Napoli and with only 8 more rounds left to play.
