It took all of 85 seconds for Juventus<\/a> to score their first goal under Luciano Spalletti.<\/p>\n

Filip Kostic<\/a> celebrated his 33rd birthday by finishing off a swift team effort that included a backheel pass from Lo\u00efs Openda<\/a> in the second minute of a 2-1 win at Cremonese<\/a> in Serie A<\/a> on Saturday.<\/p>\n

Andrea Cambiaso<\/a> added another for Juventus midway through the second half before former Leicester striker Jamie Vardy<\/a> pulled one back for Cremonese.<\/p>\n

Spalletti was hired on Thursday to replace Igor Tudor, who was fired three days earlier after an eight-match winless streak.<\/p>\n

The victory boosted Juventus up to fifth place and level with the two Milan clubs, which both play on Sunday.<\/p>\n

Spalletti said during his presentation on Friday that he believes he can turn Juventus into a title contender and the Bianconeri are now just four points behind Italian league leader Napoli<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Spalletti, the former Napoli and Italy<\/a> coach, surprisingly used Teun Koopmeiners<\/a> as a defender in a 3-5-2 formation. The Netherlands<\/a> international is usually a midfielder.<\/p>\n

Cambiaso’s goal came when a cross from Francisco Concei\u00e7\u00e3o<\/a> toward Dusan Vlahovic<\/a> deflected into his path.<\/p>\n

The 38-year-old Vardy then finished off a counterattack by muscling past defender Federico Gatti<\/a> and beating goalkeeper Michele Di Gregorio<\/a> with an angled shot. It was Vardy’s second goal in three matches after also scoring against Atalanta<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"It took all of 85 seconds for Juventus to score their first goal under Luciano Spalletti.
