Kwadwo Asamoah banished all memories of his injury woes with a commanding midfield display in Juventus 1-0 win over Lazio on Saturday evening in the Italian Serie A.
The tie was settled courtesy Sami Khedira's low shot into the corner past Lazio goalie Federico Marchetti in the 66th minute.
The 27-year-old Ghana international has been troubled by injuries during his stint with Juventus but he lasted the entire 90 minutes for the second successive game.
Forming a midfield trio with Khedira and Mario Lemina, Asamoah's team dominated the midfield exchanges in the first half but were unable to penetrate Lazio's stubborn defence.
Asamoah came close to opening his goalscoring account in the 34th minute but his venomous volley from the edge of the bos was saved by Marchetti.
Asamoah and Juventus will host Sassuolo on September 16 after the international break.
