Juventus Maintain Lead as Dybala Comes Off the Bench to Sink Brave Bologna

By Daily Sports on February 25, 2019

Juventus maintained their 13-point lead at the top of Serie A on Sunday after Paulo Dybala hit the winner in a 1-0 victory at Bologna and Napoli easily saw off Parma.

Dybala came off the bench to temporarily send a spotty Juventus 16 points clear, slotting home in the 67th minute after defender Danilo deflected Blaise Matuidi’s low cross straight to the Argentine international in front of a gaping goal.

Napoli cut the gap back to 13 points with a simple 4-0 win at mid-table Parma, Piotr Zielinski opening the scoring in the 19th minute before Arkadiusz Milik rolled a cheeky free-kick under the wall and past Luigi Sepe.

Milik added the third with a fine strike past Sepe in the 73rd minute following sloppy play from Parma, and Adam Ounas completed the rout by finishing off a superb passing move with an angled strike.

The goals were the first in Serie A for Carlo Ancelotti’s side in three matches and put them 10 points ahead of third-place Inter Milan, who travel to Fiorentina in Sunday’s late game, although their chances of a first title since the days of Diego Maradona are still slim.

Juventus travel to Napoli next week knowing that anything other than a defeat effectively seals their eighth straight league title before they try to overhaul a 2-0 deficit against Atletico Madrid in their Champions League last-16 second leg at the Allianz Stadium. (SuperSport)
