USMNT star Weston McKennie powerless to prevent Juventus stuttering again as drab Torino draw is latest chapter of their hopeless Serie A campaign

It was another frustrating day for Juventus, who squandered several opportunities to take the lead in the first half.Dusan Vlahovic was the main culprit, with the striker unable to find the back of the net. The Serbian blasted a point-blank chance off the post in just the seventh minute and was also thwarted several times by Torino goalkeeper Vanja Milinkovic-Savic, with one particularly fine save in the 31st minute.Kenan Yildiz had Juve's best chance of the second half, but Torino had the clearest opportunity to win the game late. Valentino Lazaro's header in stoppage time went just over the bar, sparing Juventus from what would have been an embarrassing defeat against their rivals as the game ended 0-0.

WHAT HAPPENED?

The draw continues a frustrating run of form for Juventus, who have been struggling for some time. The Old Lady have won just two matches in the league since January 27, claiming 11 points from as many games during that period.As a result, Juve remain in third, with the club continuing to fall further away from the top two. McKennie and his teammates are now five points behind second-placed Milan, who have a game in hand. They're also just five points ahead of fourth-placed Bologna, who also have one more game to play.

THE BIGGER PICTURE

It was a solid but not spectacular performance from McKennie, who was unable to prevent Juve from continuing their slide. That's no fault of his, though, as the visitors would have won this match easily if anyone on the team could finish.Statistically, McKennie's passing was a bit poor and there were several moments where he could have done better on the ball. Off the ball, he was effective, contributing defensively in the moments Torino got forward.It wasn't a vintage performance by any stretch, and McKennie has had a few this season. It was decent enough to help Juve control the midfield, though, and the American midfielder remains virtually irreplaceable in this team, even if he alone wasn't able to make the difference.

USMNT IMPACT

Weston McKennie (6/10):A special day as he made his 100th Serie A appearance. It wasn't a memorable game, though, as McKennie and Juve struggled. His passing will need to be better, but the draw was far from his fault.

GOAL'S RATINGS

Up next for Juventus is another Serie A match, as they'll visit Cagliari on April 19 as they continue their league campaign. After that, the focus turns towards the Coppa Italia, where Juve will face Lazio in the second leg of their semifinal as they look to protect a 2-0 lead from the opening match of the tie.
