Dušan Vlahović has been having a tough time as of late, but the Juventus forward may be getting back on track after scoring a sublime goal against Cagliari in the Coppa Italia this evening.
The Serbian was seen arguing with Juventus fans after their disappointing 2-2 draw with Venezia in Serie A last weekend, but the striker may have redeemed himself.
Before the match Juventus ultras displayed a message to the striker with a banner, reminding him of their support.

And despite Thiago Motta’s side putting in a timid first-half performance against Cagliari in the cup, Vlahović brought those very same Juventus fans to their feet with a goal on the turn in the dying minutes of the half.
Football fences are always best mended with goals and wins, and this young Juventus side are desperately in need of both.
But up stepped Vlahović to set the Bianconeri on their way, potentially to a Coppa Italia quarterfinal.
