Francesco Totti scored a first-half penalty to cancel out Vincenzo Iaquinta's opener and give Roma a 1-1 draw against Juventus in Turin. More
90+6' FULL TIME! The referee blows his whistle, after another ridiculously drawn-out end to the half.
90+4' Chiellini is down on the floor again as blood trickles down his head. Time for some more handbags in the middle, as Del Piero waits patiently over the ball
78' Chiellini launches into a header over the top of Vucinic, and both men go down. Clash of heads, by the look of it.
76' Del Neri counters with a change of his own: Marchisio trudges off to be replaced by Amauri
75' Roma sub: Greco makes way for Brighi
69' Roma sub: Totti off, Borriello on
54' Greco loses the ball to Bonucci, and tries to make amends by scything the Juve man down from behind. Blatant foul, yellow card.
53' It's the goalscorer! Luigi Del Neri makes his second throw of the dice, as Iaquinta makes way for Del Piero
50' And for Roma: Aleandro Rosi has replaced Marco Cassetti
49' There's a couple of changes to tell you about at half-time. For Juve: Armand Traore has replaced Fabio Grosso
46' We're back underway in Turin!
45+6' There goes the whistle! It's one-all at the Stadio Olimpico!
45+5' What a fascinating end to the first half! It's 1-1 at the break, and replays show that the ball did strike Pepe's raised arm, though it's hard to tell how much intent there was. Yellow card for the Juventus man.
45+4' GOAL! Totti sends Storari the wrong way before slotting the penalty into the bottom right corner!
45+3' PENALTY TO ROMA! The referee says that the hand ball was inside the area, and Roma have a penalty!
45+2' Totti takes it, fired into the wall, and it hits an arm!
34' GOAL! 1-0 JUVENTUS! Aquilani makes a couple of yards on the right wing, before swinging a low cross in to Iaquinta who slams a stunning, acrobatic volley inside the Sergio's right post. Incredible goal.
26' Iaquinta storms after a long ball over the top but is marginally offside
23' It's taken short to Aquilani, who swings in a cross towards IAQUINTA AT THE FAR POST! HE MISSES IT! The Juve forward misses the ball from three yards out, and the ball goes all the way out the other side
11' Menez receives the ball on the left wing, edge of the area. He takes a touch, and CURLS A SHOT TO THE FAR POST! GREAT SAVE STORARI!
8' Quagliarella hares down the left wing, and crosses along the floor to Iaquinta, who is one-on-one with Sergio! His first touch is heavy, dragging the ball wide right and giving Sergio time to charge out and narrow the angle, blocking the shot. Let-off for Roma, poor from Iaquinta
2' Ooof! Jeremy Menez flies into his first challenge and picks up a yellow card straight away! Not the start he would have wanted...
