Paz fires high-flying Como to historic win over Juve
Nico Paz was again the star for Como with a goal and assist in Sunday's historic 2-0 win over Juventus which lifted the traditionally tiny club up to fifth place in Serie A.
Argentina international Paz set up Marc-Oliver Kempf to sweep home in the fourth minute at the Stadio Giuseppe Sinigaglia, before making sure of Como's first win against Juve since 1952 with a wonderful individual goal with 12 minutes remaining.
Paz scampered down the right flank before cutting inside Andrea Cambiaso and curling a superb finish past Michele Di Gregorio, a goal which pushed Como above Juve on goal difference.
Owned by tobacco giant Djarum, ambitious Como are on 12 points from seven matches, only three behind the division's leading trio of Inter Milan, Napoli and Roma.
That gap to the summit will be increased to four points if fourth-placed AC Milan beat Fiorentina in Sunday's late match and move into top spot.
Paz has been a key start to Como's strong start to the campaign with four goals and as many assists.
The 21-year-old was bought in August last year from Real Madrid, in a complicated deal which gives the Spanish giants the right of repurchase before 2027.
His fine display on Sunday left Juve without a win since a dramatic victory over arch-rivals Inter just over a month ago.
Igor Tudor's Juve came into Sunday's lunchtime fixture unbeaten this season but on a run of five straight draws in all competitions.
