Half-Time Report: Juventus lead Cesena at the break

Juventus are 45 minutes away from extending their lead at the top of Serie A to nine points having taken a 2-1 lead into half time away to Cesena.

The home side took a surprise lead through Milan Djuric when he profited from Gregoire Defrel's good work to rob Andrea Pirlo in possession on 17 minutes.

However, Alvaro Morata netted shortly before the half-hour mark when he found space in between the two centre-backs to nod home.

The visitors gained the lead six minutes later when Claudio Marchisio met Morata's flick-on to poke home, sending the league leaders into the break with a slender advantage.
