Cagliari entered the match confidently and surprisingly opened the scoring in the 26th minute. From Palestra's favorable pass, Esposito finished accurately, putting the away team ahead. However, Juventus immediately responded just a minute later. Yildiz took advantage of the chaotic situation in the penalty area to equalize 1-1, helping the "Old Lady" quickly regain control of the game.
Before the end of the first half, Juventus continued to make the difference. Kalulu made a smart pass for Yildiz to escape and score the second goal, completing a double and putting the home team ahead 2-1.
In the second half, Cagliari tried to find an equalizer but lacked sharpness in the decisive handling. On the other hand, Juventus also created many opportunities but could not increase the gap. However, the 2-1 result was still enough for coach Thiago Motta's team to keep all 3 points.

Meanwhile, also in round 13, AC Milan continued to maintain stable performance with a 1-0 victory over Lazio to continue to maintain the top position in the rankings with 28 points.
