Italian championship leader position maintained by "Roma", "Juventus" suffered a setback (VIDEO)

While in other countries there are prestigious tournaments, Italian football fans can enjoy the battles of the "Serie A" championship.

Altogether eight matches were played last night. In one of them, the championship leader "Roma" confidently defeated their opponents. Rudi Garcia's players surged forward from the very beginning of the match, shining defender Maicon.

The Brazilian initially made an assist to Miralem Pjanic, then scored himself, and after ten minutes, "Giallorossi" were already leading 2-0. In the second half, goals were also exchanged by Gervinho and Cyril Thereau, and "Roma" scored three points, maintaining their first place in the standings.

Another important victory was also achieved by "Milan", who climbed to eighth place by defeating Verona's "Chievo" at home. Although the players from the "fashion capital" almost four times more shot at goal, the only goal after Carlos Bacca's assist was scored by Luca Antonelli.

For the second time in a row, the victory of "rossoneri" possibly means that Sinisa Mihajlovic will keep his position as a coach.

Meanwhile, this might be challenging for former "Milan" coach Massimiliano Allegri, whose Turin's "Juventus" suffered another loss. This time, "bianconeri" had to concede victory to "Sassuolo".

In the match ended with a score of 1-0, the goal was scored by Nicola Sansone, and in the first half, Giorgio Chiellini, after receiving a second yellow card, shattered all "Juve's" hopes to fight for even a point.
