    Time:90'
    • Palermo
    • Juventus
    • 90+3' PEEP! PEEP! PEEEEEEEP!!! That's it and Palermo have another famous victory against Juventus. A wonderful Palermo performance is rewarded and Juve's season goes from bad to worse.
    • 90+2' Palermo are inching their way towards victory. Seconds away now....
    • 90+1' Andelkovic looks for Pastore on the right but Melo gets it back. Marchisio down the left but Migliaccio steps in and sees it out for a throw.
    • 90' Three additional minutes to be played.
    • 89' Just a minute to go...
    • 88' Juve continue to pile forward but Palermo stand firm. Andelkovic concedes a corner.
    • 87' Yet another free-kick out on the right for Juve. Del Piero takes. Cleared and Pastore breaks. But it comes to nothing.
    • 86' SUB FOR PALERMO: Paolucci replaces Miccoli
    • 84' Del Piero with the corner on the right. Cleared.
    • 83' CHANCE FOR JUVENTUS! Marchisio crossed from the left and Martinez stretched out a leg from six yards only to see Sirigu stretch out one of his own to make a smart save at the near post
    • 82' CHANCE FOR PALERMO! Pastore released Miccoli. He tricked his way inside the box to be left with Buffon. He went around the keeper only for Kasami to get in his way. That would have won it.
    • 81' Darmian does brilliantly to tackle Krasic then resist the attentions of Martinez.
    • 80' Marching into the last 10 minutes and Palermo are looking good for three points.
    • 78' SUB FOR JUVENTUS: Salihamidzic replaces Grosso
    • 77' Darmian fouls Krasic on the right and Juve have the ball once more. Grosso to Melo but his ball forward for Del Piero is too long.
    • 75' 15 minutes to go and Juve need someone to do something. Meanwhile, Palermo could end up in sixth place as things stand.
    • 74' Pastore tries his luck on the right but is tackled. The ball out of defence finds Krasic. He runs at the Palermo defence and feeds Del Piero 20 yards out but his shot is blocked.
    • 73' Chiellini out wide for Grosso. He looks to cross for Martinez but Sirigu comes out to claim.
    • 72' Miccoli wriggles down the right until Barzagli comes across to clear.
    • 70' Del Piero lays it back for Grosso who crosses. It's cleared and Krasic gets it back. Back with Melo and over to Krasic but he runs the ball out for a goal kick.
    • 69' Just over 20 minutes to go and Juve are running out of ideas and Palermo look increasingly dangerous on the break.
    • 67' Krasic forces a corner on the right. Del Piero takes...cleared at the near post.
    • 66' Not the most attacking of changes but Juve need something tonight, no question.
    • 65' SUBS FOR JUVENTUS: Sissoko & Martinez replace Aquilani & Matri
    • 64' Nocerino has the chance to scamper forward as Juve continue to press but his pass is behind Kasami

    • 61' Palermo inch their way upfield and get a free-kick themselves after Chiellini's tackle.
    • 59' Another Juve free-kick. This time on the right. Del Piero to take. Sirigu flaps once more but he gets distance on it. Back with Del Piero but Kasmai nips in for his first touch and is fouled.
    • 58' SUB FOR PALERMO: Kasami replaces Ilicic
    • 56' It's all Juve now. It's as if a switch has been flicked. The Old Lady is rampant.

    • 55' Bacinovic now commits a foul midway inside the Palermo half. Del Piero takes but Chielini can't get on the end of it.
    • 54' Bacinovic is really pulling the strings in the Palermo midfield and Juve are struggling to cope.
    • 53' Juve continue to probe the Palermo backline with Krasic increasingly prominent.
    • 49' That's a huge let-ff for Palermo. Will Juventus get their equaliser or will Palermo profit?
    • 47' CHANCE FOR JUVENTUS! What a clearance! Krasic beat the offside trap and raced into the box. He cut the ball back for Matri, who had an open goal, but somehow Bovo got back and slid to make an unbelieveable clearance off the line.
    • 47' Melo steps in and brings Juve away.
    • 46' Ilicic gets a throw on the right near the corner flag.
    • 45' Juventus get the second half underway
    • 45+2' HALF-TIME: PALERMO 2 - 1 JUVENTUS

    • 45' There will be two minutes additional time.
    • 43' CHANCE FOR PALERMO! What a chance for Pastore. Miccoli cushions a lovely pass into the path of the young midfielder but he cuts across the shot on the angle from 12 yards and misses by the near post.
    • 42' Possession is rather equal for both teams but Palermo have done better with it.
    • 41' Krasic shoots with both Grygera and Matri better placed in front of him and the effort limps out for a goal kick.
    • 40' Pastore and Bovo combine to clear but it wasn't pretty.
    • 40' Aquilani is fouled on the right by Darmian and another chance for Juve to flood the box. Del Piero is over it. It's by the touchline...
    • 39' Not long to the break and this half has been a pulsating affair.
    • 38' CAUTION: Melo of Juventus
    • 37' Well, you might say that goal was just reward for the clear penalty Juve should have had but no matter.
    • 35' GOAL FOR JUVENTUS!!! What a few minutes for Marchisio!!! Sirigu flaps at Del Piero's corner and it falls to Marchisio six yards out and he lashes it into the bottom corner. Game on.
    • 34' Marchisio forces a corner on the left. Del Piero to take...
    • 33' CAUTION: Marchisio of Juventus for dissent.
    • 33' Bizarre scenes and Chiellini goes mad in front of the referee after a handball by Bovo goes unnoticed in the penalty area.
    • 32' CHANCE FOR JUVENTUS! Matri shoots straight at Sirigu from eight yards. The on-loan striker was set up by Marchisio and only had the keeper to beat from slightly left of centre. Good save with his legs but should have scored.
    • 31' Grygera's ball down the right for Del Piero is easily intercepted by Darmian and cleared.
    • 30' Del Piero takes but it's cleared.
    • 29' Melo is OK and Krasic forces a corner on the right. How Juve need something....anything before half time.
    • 28' Melo is tackled from behind and he goes down in a heap. No question of a foul but he did fall heavily.
    • 27' CHANCE FOR PALERMO! Pastore ghosts down the left and drills a cross across the goal area but no-one is there to tap it home. Should have been 3-0.
    • 26' ...Melo and then Del Piero clear before Marchisio belts it clear.
    • 25' Pastore gets a corner on the left off Chiellini. Miccoli goes to take...
    • 24' Aquilani is getting on the ball as much as possible. You think that he needs to pull Juve out of this hole. Meanwhile, Pastore is busy digging them deeper.
    • 23' Grygera brings the ball out of defence but is fouled. Juve build again.
    • 22' Juve have a throw on the right. Krasic crosses and Sirigu claims with ease.
    • 21' It's official then. Juventus are in crisis. Terrible start. Palermo could run riot here.
    • 20' GOAL FOR PALERMO!!! Migliaccio rises highest six yards out and powers his header past the helpless Buffon after Miccoli's short corner. Easy and straight from the training ground.
    • 19' Pastore snakes down the right wing and gets a corner. My goodness he's good.
    • 18' Barzagli gets Juve moving. matri flicks it to the right and Krasic. He comes back inside. Aquilani crosses for the far post but it goes out.
    • 17' Pastore comes deep and gets the throw on halfway.
    • 16' Aquilani to take. Sirigu makes a proper mess of his punch but Palermo clear.
    • 15' Aquilani searches out Matri on the left and he wins a free-kick.
    • 14' Del Piero fouls Nocerino and Palermo can clear.
    • 13' Bovo looks long for Miccoli but he's offside but not by much.
    • 12' It's looks a bit slippy out there tonight. It would come as no surprise if that led to a goal later.
    • 11' Tough break for Palermo as Ilicic turns Chiellini but the referee deems he fouled the defender. Llicic was away.

    • 7' Great start from the home side and Pastore's pass for Miccoli was sublime.
    • 6' GOAL FOR PALERMO!!! Wonderful counter attack. Pastore led the break and beat two challenges before picking out Miccoli in the inside-left channel. The former Juve striker took a touch before firing through the legs of Buffon and into the far corner.
    • 5' Melo brings Juve forward but Krasic loses out and Palermo can break.
    • 4' Palermo are happy to hang onto the ball in defence. And Juve are happy for them to have it there. Marchisio takes a cute pass from Del Piero on the edge of the box and looks to feed Krasic on the right but it goes out for a throw.
    • 3' Melo, onto Marchisio then further wide to Matri but the new signing's cross is overhit and goes out.
    • 2' Javier Pastore has set up, as expected, just behind the front two. He's such a special talent that Juve will have to watch him tonight.
    • 2' Milos Krasic is going to be key for the visitors tonight. Del Piero gets wide on the left but can't craft a corner.
    • 1' Bacinovic instantly forces a corner on the right in the opening seconds for Palermo. It's cleared by Melo then Migliaccio blazes over. Goal kick.
