Juventus taking the lead again in the 45th minute before ending the first half. The verdugo is again Paulo Dybala converting a penalty with a left footed shot in the bottom right corner. The penalty is conceded by Berat Djimsiti after a foul on Juventus midfielder Miralem Pjanic inside the penalty area. It’s a special goal for Dyala because it is his 50th goal in Serie A.


Say what! A brave Beneveto dueling like the giants and equalize for the 2-2. It is a highly motivated Cheick Diabaté scoring again this time with a headed shot in the bottom left corner. The assist is by Nicolas Viola with a cross following a corner conceded by Daniele Rugani.

Juventus taking the lead again thanks to the penalty converted by Paulo Dyabla. The penalty is conceded by Nicolas Viola after a foul on Juventus forward Gonzalo Higuaín. Dybala converts the penalty with a left footed shot in the bottom left corner fooling goalkeeper Puggioni going to the wrong way.

A cold shower for Benevento. Juvento scoring the fourth goal of the match and it is Douglas Costa to secure the victory.Costa defeating goalkeeper Puggioni with a left footed shot inthe top left corner. The assist is by Gonzalo Higuaín.
