Juventus will keep hunting for their first Champions League victory of the season as they were held to a 1-1 draw by Sporting CP in Turin.
Dusan Vlahovic replied in the 34th minute to cancel out Maxi Araujo’s opener, but the Serie A side failed to win their second game in a row under new manager Luciano Spalletti.
Sporting arrived having won two of their three European games this season and took the lead in the 12th minute when Araujo arrowed a low strike in off the foot of the post.
Two minutes later, the Portuguese giants nearly extended their lead, but Trincao’s deflected shot rebounded against the crossbar.
Juventus grew into the half, and Vlahovic, whose future in Turin is uncertain as his contract expires at the end of the season, forced a fantastic save from Rui Silva before beating the Sporting goalkeeper with a low finish from a Khephren Thuram cross.
The Serb’s first goal from open play in ten games boosted his team, but Silva made another excellent save in injury time to deny Jonathan David.
Juventus’ five-game Champions League winless streak, which began last season, is their longest since going six games without a win from April to November 2013.
They currently have three points after drawing three of their four games, while Sporting has seven.
On matchday five, Juventus travels to Norway to face Bodo/Glimt (25 November, 20:00 GMT), while Sporting plays Club Brugge in Lisbon (26 November, 20:00 GMT).
