There was no better way to end what was a spectacular session of football between the first and second-placed teams in the Serie A. The Juventus Stadium was the hub for late drama in Sunday night’s league encounter as Maurizio Sarri’s men stunned the Old Ladies to steal home all the three points which emphatically keeps their title dreams alive.
The visitors did well to prevent the current title holders from registering a single shot on target throughout the match before going in front inside the 90th-minute. A corner kick by Jose Callejon was met with a thumping header by Kalidou Koulibaly to take Napoli’s tally on the league log to 84 points - just a point behind leaders Juventus with four matches left of the season to play.
