Juventus's impressive form as
they seek to notch an eighth consecutive Serie A title continued
on Sunday when they beat AC Milan 2-0 at the San Siro thanks to
goals by Mario Mandzukic and Cristiano Ronaldo.
Former Juve forward Gonzalo Higuain missed a penalty and was
sent off in the closing stages for dissent after getting a
yellow card for a foul.
Juve have 34 points from 12 games, six more than
second-placed Napoli, who came from behind to beat Genoa 2-1 on
Saturday.
Inter's title hopes took a knock when they were thrashed 4-1
at Atalanta in Sunday's early game.
Inter are third with 25 points, three more than fourth-placed
Lazio, who were held 1-1 at Sassuolo.
Milan are one point further back.
AS Roma, sixth, thumped Sampdoria 4-1 at home.
Former Italy boss Gian Piero Ventura quit as boss of Chievo
despite the basement side earning their first point since he
took over a month ago with a 2-2 draw with Bologna.
