Juve sub: Morata makes way for Ronaldo which is something of a surprise as I thought Pirlo would have given him the night off considering the scoreline.

Penalty to Juventus! This time the referee does point to the spot! Ramsey is bundled over by Milinkovic-Savic - a completely needless challenge - and Juventus have a golden opportunity to score their third!
57'
GOAL! Juventus 2-1 Lazio (Alvaro Morata): Wow, wow, wow! Juventus take the lead with a devastating counter-attack! Chiesa wins a 50-50 in midfield and Lazio are caught short defensively. His pass is beautifully-weighted to release Morata, who smashes it past Reina.
