Today eight matches were played in the "Serie A" championship.
The victory away from home was achieved by the championship leader Turin "Juventus", thanks to goals from Gonzalo Higuain and Sami Khedira, forcing the "Sassuolo" club to surrender. Both accurate shots were made in the first half.
Earning three points allows the "bianconeri" team to pull away from the closest pursuer "Roma", who also fell away from home against Genoa's "Sampdoria".
Interestingly, in this match "giallorossi" led twice - Bruno Peres put them ahead at the beginning of the match, and in the second half Edin Dzeko equalized, but these goals were matched by Dennis Praet and Patrik Schick respectively.
Finally, a few moments after the latter goal, the home team scored a winning goal with a penalty kick perfectly executed by Luis Muriel.
The seventh-placed "Milan" also experienced failure. Vincenzo Montello's team failed to maintain their lead against "Udinese", which was provided by Giacomo Bonaventura.
Before the break in Udine, Cyril Thereau equalized the result, and in the second half Rodrigo De Paul expanded the lead.
Finally, another contender for the medals, "Napoli", played against "Palermo".
The league underdogs unexpectedly took the lead and after Ilija Nestorovski's goal in the first hour. Dries Mertens equalized the result in the middle of the second half, but the further efforts of Walter Mazzarri's team were not enough and the match ended in a draw.
