    • 90+5' That's it! Juve take the derby honours with two late goals in a 2-0 win at Torino. A draw against Palermo next weekend will crown them champions again!
    • 90+4' Birsa goes for goal from the set piece... Buffon pushes it away from the bottom corner.
    • 90+3' From the restart Torino win a free-kick 25 yards out and central. Could be a chance for at least a consolation.
    • 90+2' GOAL JUVE! Marchisio volleys home from close range after the free-kick from the red card is headed across goal by Quagliarella. 0-2!
    • 90+1' Juve will obviously just burn down these final seconds and begin by making their third and final change. Federico Peluso is on for Asamoah.
    • 90' Four minutes added on at the end here.
    • 89' RED CARD GLIK! Second yellow for another rough challenge on Quagliarella.
    • 87' They cannot do it today but three points means Juve will surely retain the title on home soil next weekend.
    • 86' GOAL VIDAL! AND WHAT A FINISH! Juve 1-0 up with a wicked low strike from distance!
    • 85' Masiello remains down afterwards but soon finds his feet after a quick bit of treatment. Don't want to be cynical, but...
    • 84' Asamoah finds Pogba with a ball to the far post... side netting! Big chance that for Juve.
    • 83' Santana makes way for Valter Birsa in the final Torino switch.
    • 81' Replays show that Bonucci had a handful of the sub's shirt. Lucky to have gotten away with that...
    • 80' MASSIVE CHANCE FOR TORINO! Again they bomb forward in numbers and Cerci, who has had a great game, crosses low where Jonathas is inches away from converting inside the six yard box!
    • 79' Torino break and Cerci shows Asamoah a clean pair of heels, but has no support when he does get a ball in after running into a dead end.
    • 78' From a Juve set piece, Vidal almost creates danger with a great volleyed cut-back from the left-hand byline. Hosts clear.
    • 77' Glik sees yellow, and will miss the next fixture through suspension, for catching Quagliarella with his arm.
    • 75' And Torino follow with their own second change as D'Ambrosio, who picked up a knock earlier, looks unable to continue. On comes Valerio Di Cesare.
    • 74' It's a double sub, in fact, with Vucinic being replaced by Fabio Quagliarella up top.
    • 73' Lichtsteiner, also booked, makes way for Martin Caceres.
    • 71' Lichtsteiner is the next man to fire off target from outside the box. Not much penetration at all from the league leaders.
    • 70' Asamoah tries an early ball in from the left but it sails past the far post and out for a goal kick.
    • 69' Aquilani has made it 3-0 Fiorentina, Osvaldo's hat-trick has made it 4-0 Roma and in a very crucial game Borriello has put Genoa ahead at Chievo.
    • 68' Pogba tries his luck from the right-hand corner of the box but Gillet saves comfortably.
    • 66' The Juve dugout is a busy place but the first switch will be from Torino. On comes Jonathas for the booked Meggiorini.
    • 65' Glik with a great, brave challenge to snuff out Vidal from an Asamoah cut-back.
    • 64' Lichtsteiner and Vidal almost create a chance with some decent head tennis in the Torino box, but the home side get it away.
    • 62' This one by Pogba is punched safe by Gillet.
    • 61' Masiello concedes another Juve corner.
    • 60' For now however, the game remains quite insipid. Buffon punctuates this by finding Vucinic, offside, with a long punt upfield.
    • 58' Pogba has started the second half with renewed fire, both on and off the ball. He could either inspire or incite here.
    • 57' Masiello is the third man into the book after bringing down Pogba with a late challenge.
    • 56' He's quickly back in action with a bit of magic spray and finally, here we go.
    • 55' Almost as soon as Gazzi returns and play resumes, Marchisio is down near his own goalmouth.
    • 54' Worth noting that Mr. Bergonzi in fact booked both Lichtsteiner AND Meggiorini in the 44th.
    • 53' Another pause in lay as Gazzi recovers from a rough tumble from a challenge by Pogba.
    • 52' Great challenge by Asamoah on Bianchi, who would have been in had he not been scuppered there.
    • 50' Barzagli connects with this one, but heads it over.
    • 48' The corner leads immediately to a second corner for Juve.
    • 47' Early gaffe from Gillet allows Vucinic to try his luck from 25. It comes off Basha and almost ricochets inside the near post. It's out for a corner.
    • 46' Juve get the second half started. Still 0-0 in Torino.
    • 45+2' And we go into the break 0-0. Not been a great half, but a few tempers are threatening to bubble over around the pitch. Join us back here in 15 minutes for the conclusion of the Turin derby.
    • 45+1' Two minutes added onto the first half.
    • 45' Looks as though Santana wins another corner, but the referee gives a goal kick.
    • 44' Here is that first yellow card before the corner. Lichtsteiner has not kept his mouth shut for much of the game and is booked for dissent.
    • 43' Bonucci gives the ball away trying to clear, and Santana unleashes a spectacular drive from outside the box which curls and dips and forces Buffon to get a hand to it at the last moment!
    • 42' Cerci tees up Bianchi, but good defending from Barzagli stops him firing at goal.
    • 40' To Mr. Bergonzi's credit, he has kept his cards in the book but with the nature of the game so far you cannot see that lasting.
    • 39' Osvaldo's second has made it Roma 3-0 Siena while Ljajic has made it 2-0 for Fiorentina at Sampdoria.
    • 38' Meggiorini is surely one foul away from a yellow for repeat offences. Once again he clatters Pirlo. All in his task dossier, no doubt.
    • 37' Pirlo sends a long free-kick into a packed box and Pogba gets a shot on target with the header though Gillet saw it all the way and claims.
    • 36' Cuadrado has put Fiorentina ahead at Sampdoria.
    • 35' ...and Pirlo threads Vucinic through, but though the striker lifts the finish over Gillet and beyond D'Ambrosio's attempted clearance off the line, the flag was up and rightly so.
    • 34' The free-kick is cleared and Juve break...
    • 33' Santana skips past Lichtsteiner on the left, who leads with an arm while trying to win the ball back but Santana like Chiellini milks the contact.
    • 32' Meggiorini catches Chiellini, who makes a meal of it but it was a foul.
    • 31' Another great sliding winner by Vidal as Basha was set to enter the Juve box with the ball.
    • 30' Now Pogba directly from the right tries to get the ball into a good position with a low centre but again it's cut out, this time by Masiello.
    • 29' Pogba and Lichtsteiner switch roles with the former slipping a ball inside from the right to the latter in the area. The Swiss full-back's final ball attempt is well blocked.
    • 28' Torino waste a good chance to exploit gaps in the Juve back line with some sloppy passing.
    • 26' No other goals to report elsewhere, still 2-0 Roma and 1-0 Palermo, though even more bad news for Inter with Zanetti going off injured.
    • 25' Bianchi meets the flag kick but is directly underneath it and can only head well over.
    • 24' Better from the hosts as Cerci outpaces two defenders on the right before his chipped cross is headed out at the far post by Marchisio to make sure. Corner Torino.
    • 23' Pirlo guilty of crumbling under heavy pressure in his own final third but wins the free-kick. Fortunate, if you ask me.
    • 22' It was an ankle complaint but he's fine now and back in action.
    • 21' Bit of a treatment break for Lichtsteiner who is awaiting permission to return to the field as play gets back underway.
    • 20' Good first 10 from Torino but Juve have bossed the last 10.
    • 18' Now Juventus push again and a dummy to the right precedes a Lichtsteiner cross to Vucinic... blocked... Pogba! Stopped just before the line from close range!
    • 17' Decent short routine leads to Marchisio having a cross-cum-shot from just outside the area on the left pushed away by Gillet.
    • 16' Pirlo sends Asamoah free on the left, and his cross is deflected behind for the first corner of the match.
    • 15' In fact, Marchisio had also gone for it and while he did not get there first, he was offside and his intentions triggered the flag anyway.
    • 14' Juventus are starting to show a little swagger now and a lovely short cross by Lichtsteiner from inside the box is headed over by Vidal.
    • 13' The in-form Ilicic has put Palermo ahead at home to Inter, while Osvaldo has the opener for Roma at home to Siena... oh, wait, and Lamela makes it 2-0 in a three minute swing.
    • 12' Robust but ball-winning challenge by Vidal leads to a swift Juve advance. Pogba threads a lovely ball through to Vucinic, who rushes the strike and his first-time effort is scuffed wide.
    • 11' It's bucketing it down here at the moment.
    • 10' It's over 35 yards from goal but Pirlo's attempt to get it into the danger zone hits the wall.
    • 9' Meggiorini upends Pirlo after the midfielder did well to get away from his shadow.
    • 8' Cerci whips in an inviting ball but Bianchi is just behind it, unable to get a crucial touch from close range.
    • 6' Lichtsteiner gives the ball away cheaply and this time Santana wins the free-kick from him on that left flank after capitalising.
    • 5' Fairly balanced start here. Both sides have tried to get forward in possession but nothing majorly exciting yet.
    • 4' Santana feels he was upended in a crowd of Juve players as he embarks on a good run inside from the left. The referee feels he made the most of minimal contact.
    • 3' Lichtsteiner wins the visitors an early set piece from 30 yards, but it goes harmlessly back to Gillet.
    • 2' There are six Serie A games now underway, including Palermo-Inter and Parma Lazio. You can keep an eye on all the major events and goals here: Live Italian Serie A Scores | Results � Yahoo! Eurosport UK
