It was a pretty good day for Kwadwo Asamoah on Saturday after returning to action as Juventus defeated Chievo Verona 3-0 in the Italian Serie A.

The Ghanaian midfielder who was linked with Turkish giants Galatasaray ahead of the start of the season played his first game of the season and lasted the entire duration.

Despite the news around the former Udinese player he was very impressive marshaling the left side of the middle.

Second-half goals from substitute Paulo Dybala and Gonzalo Higuain sealed the win after an own goal by Chievo midfielder Perparim Hetemaj.

Goalkeeper Wojciech Szczesny was handed his debut as Gianluigi Buffon was rested.

Ahead of Tuesday’s trip to Barcelona, the Turin club rested most of their key players.

Dybala started on the bench, as did Andrea Barzagli and Juan Cuadrado. Giorgio Chiellini, Sami Khedira, Claudio Marchisio and Alex Sandro were out injured.
