Juventus celebrated the full-time whistle like champions. They'll certainly be staying at the top of Serie A for another week after pulling four points clear of Napoli who play on Sunday; the Old ladies were just one point above Napoli in the Serie A table after losing to them in Turin.

It was left late, Juventus score twice in two minutes late on to claim three vital points with Argentina striker Gonzalo Higuain scoring the winner to put the pressure on Napoli, who travel to Fiorentina on Sunday, by picking up three points on the road against a strong Inter side who themselves are still fighting to finish in the Champions League qualification spots.

Douglas Costa scored a stunning volley to give the visitors an early advantage as Inter’s midfielder Matias Vecino was sent off after the referee consulted VAR inform and captain fantastic, Mauro Icardi drifts into space and heads home to bring 10-men Inter back level, surprisingly Inter took the lead after Andrea Barzagli turned Ivan Perisic's cross into the goal but the defending champions Juventus score twice in two minutes late on to claim three vital points with Gonzalo Higuain netting the winning goal with his head.
