Timothy Weah, son of George Weah, former President of Liberia, has won the Coppa Italia cup with Juventus.
Weah featured for Juventus in the final as they defeated Atalanta 1-0 in the match.
The 24-year old came replaced Esteban Cambiaso at halftime, coming on as Juve’s right wingback.
Weah wasn’t a key contributor to any of the goals, although he did have a few good moments on the ball as Montero’s substitutions helped key the Juve comeback.
Juventus seized the lead early on a goal from Dusan Vlahovic, and that strike proved to be all that they needed to get their hands on the trophy.
Played through by Andrea Cambiasso, the Serbian picked his spot despite battling a defender, scoring an opening goal just four minutes in to ease nerves almost immediately in this cup final.
Atalanta had their chances, though, with Ademola Lookman hitting the bar later on in the second half.
Juve, too, had opportunities to put it away. Vlahovic seemingly did so with a 73rd-minute goal before VAR determined he was offside by a millimeter in the buildup, leading to the goal being called back.
Despite that setback, the Bianconeri had done enough to earn the win and the cup with a narrow 1-0 triumph.
Timothy Weah of Juventus FC was happy to have won his first trophy with the club.
He celebrated the win with the trophy during the award ceremony at the end of the Coppa Italia Final match between Atalanta BC and Juventus FC at Stadio Olimpico recently in Rome, Italy.
