FolioPitch.com – 09 August 2026 | Friendly Juventus 1-2 Inter Alajbegovic good debut but Nerazzurri victorious. In a highly anticipated friendly match, Inter Milan secured a 2-1 victory over their arch-rivals Juventus in an Australian Derby d'Italia. The match, played at Optus Stadium in Perth, saw Inter take the lead in the 20th minute through a stunning strike from Federico Dimarco. The Italian winger received a through ball from Ange-Yoan Bonny and slotted the ball past Juventus goalkeeper Michele Di Gregorio. Hakan Calhanoglu tested Di Gregorio with a dipping free kick, but Juve struggled to create clear-cut chances until the second half.
Inter doubled their lead in the 63rd minute when Di Gregorio comically fumbled an angled drive from Andy Diouf at the near post. The Juventus defence was caught napping, leaving a chasm for Diouf to run into. Despite a few nervy moments, Inter held on to their lead and secured a vital victory.
Juventus were given a lifeline when Francisco Conceicao combined with Fabio Miretti to burst down the left and fire through Josep Martinez’s legs in the 85th minute. However, Alajbegovic’s cross only grazed the head of Randal Kolo Muani, and unmarked Matteo Lavelli ballooned over an open goal after Jamal Iddrissou rolled across for Inter.
The match saw several debuts, including that of Kerim Alajbegovic, who made a promising start. Alajbegovic made a run into the box but tried to set up a teammate rather than go for goal. The 29-year-old Bosnia and Herzegovina international had a chance to equalize late on but was denied by Martinez.
The victory marks a promising start to the season for Inter, who will look to build on this momentum as they prepare for the upcoming Serie A campaign. Meanwhile, Juventus will look to regroup and bounce back from this defeat.
In summary, Friendly Juventus 1-2 Inter Alajbegovic good debut but Nerazzurri victorious was an enthralling match that saw Inter emerge victorious. The match was marked by several debuts and a thrilling display of football from both teams.
