The Men's First Team beat NEC Nijmegen 5-0 to begin their UEFA Europa League campaign.

Let's reflect on the standout stats from the game.

Juventus have won their opening match of a major European competition by a margin of at least five goals for the seventh time in their history, the first since their UEFA Cup debut in 1992-93 (6-1 against Anorthosis Famagosta), when they lifted the trophy at the end of the tournament.

Juventus have never lost their opening home match of a European competition season, recording 21 wins and five draws in 26 such games.

Kerim Alajbegovic (18 years and 361 days) is only the second teenager in history to score for Juventus in a major European competition, after Gianfranco Zigoni (18 years and 311 days against OFK Belgrade in the Inter-Cities Fair Cup on 2nd October 1963).

Nick Woltemade is the first German player to score a goal for Juventus in a major European competition since Jürgen Kohler, who netted in the UEFA Cup in April 1995 against Borussia Dortmund .

Kamil Grabara (8:14) provided an assist quicker than any other Juventus player on his debut for the club in all competitions across the last 10 seasons.
