Juve open US tour with 2-0 friendly win over Chivas

French World Cup winning midfielder Pogba joined Juventus this month on a free transfer after winding down his contract with Manchester United, who he joined in 2016 for a then-record fee of 105 million euros.

The 29-year-old made his presence felt in coach Massimiliano Allegri's starting 11 at Allegiant Stadium, home of the NFL's Las Vegas Raiders. But it was Marco Da Graca that fired Juventus ahead from close range in the 10th minute after Federico Gatti's header from a corner was parried by the Chivas goalkeeper. Mattia Compagnon added a second goal in the 80th minute after Tommaso Barbieri's solo run into the area ended with his blocked shot veering straight to his teammate.

Pogba and Gatti were just two of the recent acquisitions that Allegri thrust into action, with former Real Madrid winger Angel Di Maria also in the lineup and Brazilian defender Gleison Bremer coming on.
