    Juventus 2-0 Lazio

    Lazio haven't played badly. Far from it but they are heading for a second successive defeat. Juve have created the better chances and, once again, look the team to beat in Serie A.

    Juventus 2-0 Lazio

    Ronaldo has a huge smile on his face as he celebrates with his team-mates. He knows he should have scored - the ball hit both of his feet before ending up in the path of Mandzukic - but Juve are in a commanding position.

    GOAL - Juventus 2-0 Laziopublished at 74 mins

    Mario Mandzukic

    Game over!

    Mario Mandzukic makes no mistake after Ronaldo gets it all wrong inside the six yard area after Joao Cancelo's low cross.

    Ronaldo should have buried it but it hits his heel and ends up with Mandzukic smashing home.

  10. CLOSE!published at 71 mins

    Juventus 1-0 Lazio

    A stunning dipping hit by Cristiano Ronaldo from just outside the penalty area and an equally stunning save by Thomas Strakosha.

    A quality moment. Ronaldo can't believe that has not gone in. And neither can the crowd.

  11. SUBSTITUTIONpublished at 69 mins

    Juventus 1-0 Lazio

    Emre Can is on for the last 20 minutes or so. Goalscorer Miralem Pjanic gets a standing ovation as he makes way.

    Lazio have also made changes. Luis Alberto off and Marco Parolo have gone off for Joaquin Correa and Milan Badelj.

    Juventus 1-0 Lazio

    As well as Antonio Conte, Roberto Mancini is in the crowd. It's like a who's who of Italian football.

    Juventus 1-0 Lazio

    Ronaldo's frustrating evening continues as he goes up for a header and the ball flies wide. Replays show it came off Wallace but it's a Lazio goal kick.

    Juventus 1-0 Lazio

    Juve free-kick 25 yards out. Up steps Ronaldo. There's a huge delay as the £99.2m signing eyes up the situation...before slamming it into the wall.

    That was disappointing to say the least.

  15. SUBSTITUTIONpublished at 60 mins

    Juventus 1-0 Lazio

    Time for a Juve change.

    Massimiliano Allegri is sending on Brazilian forward Douglas Costa for Federico Bernardeschi.

  16. CLOSE!published at 58 mins

    Juventus 1-0 Lazio

    Luis Alberto lets fly for Lazio...just wide. That was too close for comfort for Juve.

    Juventus 1-0 Lazio

    Lazio are pressing and Juve have numbers back defending deep.

    The visitors are enjoying lots more possession but they are struggling to test Wojciech Szczesny.

  18. YELLOW CARDpublished at 53 mins

    Juventus 1-0 Lazio

    A few meaty challenges and the referee is being kept busy.

    Marco Parolo has been cautioned for clattering into Mandzukic and moments later Lazio's Luis Alberto is sent sprawling.

    Juventus 1-0 Lazio

    Clever by Cristiano Ronaldo whose step-over leads to the Portuguese rolling the ball across the six-yard area but Mario Mandzukic gets it horribly wrong. And I mean horribly. It was almost a clearance rather than a shot by the Juve man.
