The race for the Scudetto is on! Juventus in the first position dueling with Napoli neck-to-neck. AC Milan struggling to claim victories winning only 15 games compared to Juventus winning 25 games this season. Surely, it is an important victory for Juventus boosting the morale of the team to face the Champions League Quarterfinals first leg against Real Madrid.
It is Juventus to open the score in the 8th minute. Argentinean forward Paulo Dybala defeating AC Milan goalkeeper Gianluigi Donnarumma with a left footed shot in the bottom right corner. The assist is by midfielder Miralem Pjanic.
