Claudio Marchisio and Sebastian Giovinco scored second half goals as Juventus beat 10-man Torino 3-0 to rack up their 60th win in the ‘Derby della Mole’ on Saturday.
Juventus dominated throughout but apart from a solid performance from French midfielder Paul Pogba the bianconeri’s first half display lacked real bite and even included a penalty miss from Andrea Pirlo.
Antonio Conte’s side made amends in the second half, however, with Giovinco’s 67th minute goal sandwiched by Marchisio’s brace on 57 and 84 minutes.
A Santiago Garcia own goal gave Inter a much needed three points and ensured they keep the pressure on Serie A leaders Juventus.
Andrea Stramaccioni’s side edged the contest and showed the greater attacking intent throughout, with Diego Milito going close on more than one occasion in the first-half.
The game remained goalless, though, until the 74th minute when Garcia turned Ranocchia’s low cross past his own goalkeeper and handed the hosts a valuable three points. Napoli thrashed Pescara 5-1 to remain two points adrift.
