Juventus go 10 points clear

Juventus have taken full advantage of Inter Milan's defeat to Lazio last night by stretching their lead at the top of Serie A to ten points.

Mirko Vucinic, Andrea Pirlo and Claudio Marchisio struck in the first half to ensure the Old Lady a comfortable victory over Atalanta BC.

It took just 60 seconds for Vucinic to slot home the opener after latching onto Sebastian Giovinco's through-ball.

Pirlo doubled Juve's advantage with a free kick that had Andrea Consigli beaten all ends up.

A piledriver from Marchisio put the game to bed before the break, but things were to get worse for the visitors as Thomas Manfredini saw red for two bookable offences.

The Bianconeri failed to add to their tally in the second half, but ran out comfortable winners.
