  • Live Commentary

    • 90+1' The full-time whistle goes, and it has finished 3-0 to Juventus with Marchisio netting a brace and Giovinco adding the third. Torino were reduced to 10 men after Kamil Gilk's red card, and were always going to struggle from that point onwards. Thanks for your company this evening.
    • 90' There will be just one added minute at the end of this second half with Juventus cruising with a three-goal cushion.
    • 88' Matri finds Vucinic inside the Torino box, but he cannot beat Gillet from close range as the keeper makes a fine save down low to his right!
    • 86' Pirlo picks out Bendtner with a raking cross-field pass, but the Dane cannot quite take it down in his stride.
    • 84' GOAL! Marchisio latches on to a header from Vucinic and drives a left-footed shot beyond the helpless Gillet and into the bottom corner of the net to make it three for Juventus! The match is dead and buried now.
    • 82' Santana has a shot from 25 yards which sails over the bar, and that was never going to trouble Buffon.
    • 80' Bendtner wins a free kick with another tidy piece of play, and Juventus are piling forward in their droves.
    • 79' It's all Juventus as Torino sit deep and attempt to contain their hosts now.
    • 77' Bendtner wins a free kick for Juventus with a neat turn on the edge of the Torino box, but the set piece is from a tight angle and promptly wasted.
    • 75' Vucinic is shown the yellow card for a crude foul on Darmian, and Torino can build from this set piece now.
    • 73' Alessandro Matri comes on to replace Giovinco now, who comes off to a standing ovation from the home fans.
    • 71' Pogba heads on target as Vucinic again gets to the byline down the right and floats the ball back to the midfielder, with Gillet making the stop.
    • 69' Santana lays the ball off to Cerci, who lashes a fierce drive from the edge of the penalty area, with Buffon forced to make a fine save to his right!
    • 67' GOAL! Giovinco doubles the hosts' lead with a composed finish as the ball breaks to him inside the Torino penalty area from Vucinic's knock down. Juventus have a cushion now in this second half!
    • 65' Alen Stevanovic replaces Rolando Bianchi for Torino, and the visitors have now made two changes.
    • 63' Santana wins a free kick with some neat footwork, and Giovinco is shown the yellow card for what is a bad foul.
    • 61' Barzagli is shown the yellow card for a poor challenge, and now it is Torino's turn to make a few changes.
    • 59' De Ceglie comes off for Juventus now as the change is made, with Kwadwo Asamoah coming on in his place.
    • 57' GOAL! Marchisio gives Juventus the lead with a brilliant diving header as the cross comes over from Giovinco from out on the right, and that's a cracking goal! Juventus deservedly lead, and it was just a matter of time.
    • 55' Bianchi does superbly to turn away from Barzagli to win a free kick and give his side some respite.
    • 53' Unsurprisingly, it's all Juventus in this second half with 10 man Torino battling away at the back.
    • 51' Ogbonna concedes a corner, and Juventus nearly score from it as Bonnucci heads over the bar from Giovinco's delivery!
    • 49' Bendtner is already making an impact as he heads on to Pogba, who heads just over the bar from close range! It's a big chance.
    • 47' Nicklas Bendtner replaces Giaccherini, who never really recovered fully from that challenge by Gilk.
    • 46' The second half is under way, and Juventus are immediately back into their stride and pressing upfield.
    • 45+1' The half-time whistle goes, and it remains goalless between Juventus and Torino, with the visitors reduced to 10 men after Gilk was shown the red card, and Pirlo having missed a penalty!
    • 45' There will be one minute of added time at the end of this dramatic first half.
    • 43' Missed! Pirlo steps up to take the penalty kick, but he blazes it over the bar and the scoreline remains goalless! Quite incredible to see the midfielder lose his composure in such fashion.
    • 42' PENALTY! Basha handles the ball inside the penalty area, and Pirlo will have the opportunity to give Juventus the lead.
    • 41' Valerio Di Cesare replaces Meggiorini, and Torino make a change to reshuffle following the red card.
    • 39' Lichsteiner wins a free kick for Juventus as D'Ambrosio commits the foul.
    • 37' It was a very poor challenge, and the referee really had no choice there.
    • 36' RED CARD! The referee has a think about what to do briefly, before brandishing the red card, to the horror of the Torino players! Gilk is given his marching orders.
    • 35' Giaccherini goes down holding his legs after a crunching two-footed challenge from Kamil Gilk, and he could be in big trouble now as the Juventus man stays down injured.
    • 33' Bianchi handles the ball on halfway as Juventus get another chance to build from the back.
    • 31' Pogba draws a very fine save from Gillet as he drives a fierce strike on target from range, and that was a crisp shot!
    • 29' Barzagli drives a wild shot over the crossbar after being given ample space to let fly from 25 yards!
    • 27' Gillet attempts a through ball as Cerci makes a pacy run through the heart of the Juventus defence, but the pass comes just too late as the offside flag goes up!
    • 25' Juventus are beginning to really dominate the possession in this match now, and Torino find themselves very much on the back foot.
    • 23' Meggiorini wins a free kick as Pogba lunges in rather recklessly, but the referee does not hand out a card on this occasion.
    • 21' Basha is the next to find himself in the referee's notepad as he brings down the instrumental Pirlo.
    • 19' De Ceglie is shown the yellow card for a crude foul on Marchisio, and neither side is able to dominate possession at the moment with Juventus slightly on top.
    • 17' It's very competitive in midfield, and tackles fly in from Giaccherini on D'Ambrosio and Giovinco on Basha.
    • 15' Giaccherini attempts another powerful shot from just outside the Juventus box, but it drifts agonisingly wide.
    • 13' Pirlo is dictating affairs from the midfield, and he fires a shot in from the right with the block coming in from the edge of the box which is blocked away.
    • 11' Ogbonna does well to backtrack and concede a corner, and Juventus are really piling on the pressure now.
    • 9' Cerci finds Santana, who swivels and unleashes a fierce shot from the left of the box with Buffon making a fine save down low!
    • 7' Giovinco fouls Darmian, and it's a rather scrappy opening to this match as both teams jostle for the ball in midfield.
    • 5' Pirlo takes a corner for Juventus after persistent work from Pogba outwide, but it's too deep and Torino can clear away.
    • 3' Vucinic plants a firm header just wide of the far corner as he rises to meet Giaccherini's cross from the right, and that's a real chance for the hosts early on!
    • 1' The first half is under way at the Juventus Stadium, and Torino enjoy some good early possession at the back.
