Juventus 4-1 AS Roma

Juventus have continued their superb start to the season with a ruthless home victory against a spirited Roma side.

Andrea Pirlo opened the scoring after 10 minutes with a sweetly-struck free kick, which sailed over a fragmented Roma wall.

Arturo Vidal scored Juve's second just three minutes later with an assured penalty kick after Leandro Castan handled in the box.

There was no let-up for Roma as Alessandro Matri made it 3-0 after just twenty minutes with a rifled finish.

Roma fought back in the second half and, after making a series of substitutions, found a breakthrough with 20 minutes to go.

Leandro Bonucci elbowed Matteo Destro to give the referee no choice but to award a penalty, which Pablo Osvaldo nestled to give Roma a glimmer of hope.

Sebastian Giovinco scored in stoppage time to make it five wins from Juve's opening six league games.

The victory makes it 45 Serie A matches unbeaten for Antonio Conte's side.
