Kaio Jorge replaces Morata.

Pavoletti is booked for the foul and dissent.

Balde Keita comes on.

Federico Bernadeschi makes sure of the win! Kulusevski's first touch was brilliant to take it away from Carboni, he finds Bernadeschi, and the Italian shuffles it onto his left and strikes across Cragno and doubles the hosts' lead. 2-0.

Manuel Locatelli comes on for Arthur.

Conceded by Morata on Ceppitelli under the high ball.

It's much the opposite for the hosts. They've got their feet on the ball and the time to dictate the tempo, but they're still knocking on the door, looking for that elusive second.

There's more nerves and desperation now about the visitors as they realise that time is of the essence. They're conceding more silly fouls now as Morata goes down.

Moise Kean replaced by Dejan Kulusevski.

Oliva replaces Deiola in midfield for the visitors as Moise Kean gets treatment.

Zappa digs out a wonderful cross and de Ligt loses Joao Pedro, and Szczesny pulls out a worldie of a save to divert a pinpoint header over the bar!

Pavoletti replaces Pereiro.

Sandro does well to find the cross on the fall by the byline, and Bernadeschi takes it down and spins on the ball, but fires well over.

Lovely dinked ball by McKennie to the back post for Morata who teases Zappa, and tries to catch Cragno out with a snapshot by the goalkeeper holds.

Cagliari steam forwards with the long diagonal flicked on by Pereiro; Bellanova races onto the touch and crosses... Dalbert coming in! He's put it wide! What a chance.

Dangerously driven through the middle of the Cagliari half by Bentancur, sliding in Bernadeschi, and his left-footed effort is blocked behind for the corner. The delivery is punched by Cragno and the visitors try and get out as Juve rebuild play.
