Medhi Benatia made it two goals in as many appearances for Juventus as the Serie A champions came from behind to beat South China 2-1 in Hong Kong on Saturday.
Having netted in Tuesday’s 2-1 International Champions Cup victory over Tottenham, the on-loan Bayern Munich defender repeated the trick against South China.
Juventus were forced to come from behind, though, with Neto flapping at a free-kick to allow Chan Siu Ki to pounce and coolly slot home.
Lorenzo Rosseti then settled the contest in the 82nd minute, rounding South China goalkeeper Cristian Mora after he spilled a 25-yard drive from Stefano Padovan.But Massimiliano Allegri’s men recovered well from that 21st-minute setback, with Benatia poking home after gathering a loose ball that deflected off the defensive wall from a set-piece.
