Juventus got off to the right start in Serie A’s return.

Although Juventus now have to navigate a difficult situation at left back after Mattia De Sciglio’s injury and Danilo’s head-scratching red card, the Bianconeri picked up a much-needed victory to start Serie A, defeating Bologna 2-0 on the road.

There are still major concerns for Maurizio Sarri, whose midfield remains ineffective. But Paulo Dybala and Federico Bernardeschi reminded fans that there is still plenty of attacking quality in this side.

Here were the top five performances of the win.

CF Paulo Dybala

Starting through the middle against Bologna with Cristiano Ronaldo on the left, Paulo Dybala was sensational for Juventus in yet another game. The Argentine forward led the team with five dribbles completed, per WhoScored.com, and he also drew four fouls. Dybala was always looking to make something happen with the ball at his feet.

But the best part of his performance was undoubtedly his goal. If a defense gives Dybala even an inch of space, La Joya will punish them. The curl he can put on shots is unreal, as he always seems to know exactly where the far corner is. Dybala’s goal against Bologna was highlight-reel material, and it was the crowning achievement in another strong performance from the 26-year-old.
