German precision! Woltemade volleys Juve level before hailing partnership with match-winner Kolo Muani

Woltemade volley sparks Juventus fightback in Spain

German forward Nick Woltemade played a starring role as Juventus mounted a second-half comeback to beat Celta Vigo 2-1 in the Europa League. Woltemade cancelled out Hugo Alvarez's opener with a superb right-footed volley into the bottom corner in the 58th minute.

His clinical finish pounced on a deflected Teun Koopmeiners cross to bring the Bianconeri level after a difficult first half in Galicia.

Randal Kolo Muani later headed home in stoppage time to complete the comeback victory for Luciano Spalletti's side.

Speaking to Movistar+ after the match, Woltemade emphasized the significance of the late win for the squad's morale. "An important win, especially when you score at the end. It’s crucial for the team and for our confidence," Woltemade stated.

"I’m delighted with the win. I did some good things tonight, though I can certainly do better."

"I’m pleased with the goal, it’s definitely something that gives a striker confidence, and I want to keep improving to help the team even more."

Having opened his European account for the Bianconeri with an emphatic strike, Woltemade aims to build on his personal momentum.

Juventus will look to maintain their winning trajectory when they host Rennes on Matchday 3 of the Europa League.

Celta Vigo, meanwhile, must refocus as they travel to Celtic searching for their first points in the group stage.
