Soccer-Chiesa sent off on debut as Juve held at Crotone

CROTONE, Italy, Oct 17 (Reuters) - Juventus winger Federico
Chiesa was sent off on his debut and the Serie A champions also
had a goal disallowed by VAR for offside by the tiniest of
margins as they were held to a 1-1 draw at promoted Crotone on
Saturday.
Chiesa, signed from Fiorentina during the recent transfer
window, was given a straight red card for a studs-up challenge
on Luca Cigarini on the hour.
Juventus, missing Cristiano Ronaldo after he tested positive
for COVID-19 on Tuesday, thought they had scored a winner when
Alvaro Morata turned the ball in from close range in the 77th
minute but a long VAR review showed his heel was offside.
Crotone had taken the lead with a Simy penalty in the 12th
minute before Morata levelled from Chiesa's assist nine minutes
later. Juve, chasing a 10th straight title, have eight points
from four games while Crotone picked up their first point.
