    • Genoa
    • Juventus
    • 90'+4 That's it! All over in Genoa and it's a comfortable win for Juve, who go four points clear in third place!
    • 90'+1 Trezeguet cracks one off at goal! But it's easy for Scarpi, who falls on the ball...
    • 87' Oooh! Nearly a freak goal, similar to Pennant's against Newcastle yesterday! This time it's Camoranesi who deflects the ball goalwards! Scarpi to the rescue!
    • 85' Some excitement! Iaquinta unleashes a venomous drive from outside the box which bounces just wide of the upright!
    • 79' Yellow cards and substitutions aside, there's really nothing happening at the moment...
    • 78' Figueroa makes an entrance at the expense of De Rosa... and Iaquinta comes on for Del Piero...
    • 74' Zanetti pulls up holding his hamstring... so off he trots and on comes Tiago...
    • 72' Another yellow card - Fabiano is the latest offender... this is getting boring.
    • 70' Oh dear, another booking... Zebina is shown a yellow for another foul on Leon.
    • 69' Jvue make a change... Sissoko heads off and Nocerino comes on...
    • 65' Borriello tries to get on the end of a pass through... but Chiellini is strong and the ball runs all the way to Buffon...
    • 63' Vanden Borre makes an entrance for Genoa... he's got to come up with something special to get the hosts back in this one.
    • 60' This game is in danger of dying out... an hour gone, and Juve are in complete control...
    • 58' Genoa coach Gian Piero Gasperini shuffles his pack a little in an attempt to haul his side back into this one... Di Vaio on for Sculli...
    • 51' Off the post! Borriello slides in to meet a cross... the ball flies goalwards, only for Buffon to pull off a wonder save and tip the effort onto the upright!
    • 48' Oooh! Salimhamzidic lets fly from distance... it takes a deflection on its way through that leaves Scarpi struggling to get there! The ball bounces just wide of the post!
    • 46' Back underway at the Luigi Ferraris! No changes to tell you about at the break...
    • 45'+3 And there goes the half time whistle! It's been a decent first half for Juve, who lead by two goals to nil.
    • 45' Criscito leaves Salihamizdic on the ground and he is shown yellow for his efforts...
    • 42' And here's another - for Camoranesi after he brings down Leon... it's all getting a bit scrappy at the moment...
    • 41' Sculli is the next to go into the referee's note book... for a late challenge on Grygera...
    • 39' A little mouse is spotted taking in the game from the dugout! Best seat in the house and I bet he didn't pay for his ticket either!
    • 35' Sissoko fires wide from distance... Juve have asserted their authority on this one early on, and it's going to take a miracle for Genoa to come back now....
    • 33' GOAL! Trezeguet fires home from close range after Grygera finds him with a neat through ball to put Juve two up!
    • 31' Sculli heads over the bar from the corner! Good stuff from the hosts!
    • 30' Milanetto lofts the free kick into the Juve box... teh ball skims off Sissoko's head for a corner!
    • 29' Another yellow is brandished here... this time it's Sissoko who gets it for an assault on Rossi...
    • 25' GOAL! The ball falls to Grygera, who unleashes a thunderbolt which Scarpi can do nothing about as it flies past him and bulges the back of the net! 1-0 Juve!
    • 20' Here is the first yellow of the game... and it goes to Legrottaglie for a clumsy challenge on Leon...
    • 15' Sculli is caught by Salimhamidzic... and that should be the first yellow of the day... but isn't...
    • 11' Leon now advances with the ball at his feet... he delivers a teasing cross across the face of goal... but there's no one there to apply a finishing touch!
    • 9' De Rosa makes up for his mistake moments later, as he comes across to snuff out danger as Trezeguet lurked in the box...
    • 7' Grygera swings a hopeful cross into the box... ooh! De Rosa makes a complete hash out of his attempted clearance, slicing the ball over the top of this own cross bar!
    • 3' Oooh! First chance of the game falls to Borriello! He glances a header wide of the far post!
    • 2' Borriello gets his first touch... Juve will have to watch out for him tonight - he's on fire of late.
    • 1' Here we go! Underway in Genoa!
