Emil Holm back after injury as substitute against Genoa

National team defender Emil Holm's brief cameo against Genoa marked his first minutes in Serie A since February. Holm came on with seven minutes remaining in Juventus' 2-0 win.

On the same day that national team captain Graham Potter received the news that Gustav Lundgren had torn his Achilles tendon and was not eligible for the World Cup squad this summer, positive news came from Italy.

Emil Holm is finally back from injury. His substitute appearance against Genoa was his second league match for Juventus since he joined on loan from Bologna last winter.

Now, almost two months later, the right-back made his comeback.

Gleison Bremer and Weston McKennie scored as Juventus strengthened their chances of securing a place in next season's Champions League. "Juve" is fifth, one point behind Como.
