Genoa snatch a priceless win at the death. The first half was a tight affair: Kean and Destro wasted chances for either side, but there was little in it. However, the game opened up in the second half when Dybala lashed in a superb 20-yard strike. And Juventus could have finished the game off when the attacker later hit the post. However, Genoa stayed in it thanks to some great saves from Sirigu and they punished the visitors late on. First, Gudmundsson curled in a precise finish to equalise. And then, after Kean managed to miss an open goal, Genoa went up the other end and won a penalty in the 96th minute when De Sciglio clumsily tripped Yeboah. Criscito stepped up and cooly slotted in the spot-kick to send the home fans into raptures and to grab a massive victory for Genoa.
The result means that Genoa remain in 19th, but they're now just one point off safety. Juventus, meanwhile, remain in fourth.
That's all for now though, goodbye!
