Juventus defeat Cesena in preseason hit-out

Juventus defeated Cesena 3-1 on Saturday in a preseason friendly.

Allegri had dropped Gianluca Frabotta, Nicolò Fagioli and Alessandro Di Pardo as punishment for turning up late to a training session, while Luca Pellegrini and Paulo Dybala were injured.

Koni De Winter struck first for Juve, before Weston McKennie doubled Juve's lead.

Then in the second-half, Matias Soulé capped off an impressive display with a goal, aided by a big deflection.

McKennie, meanwhile, was spotted on the bench with strapping around his knee.
