Match Report
Sergej Milinkovic-Savic and Felipe Caicedo netted as Lazio came from behind to shock Juventus 3-1 at home and inflict Maurizio Sarri's first defeat as Bianconeri coach.
Juve, held 2-2 at Sassuolo last time out, took the lead through Cristiano Ronaldo but were pegged back before the break by Luiz Felipe's header in a gripping Serie A encounter.
Juan Cuadrado's red card opened the door for Lazio and they charged through it, Luis Alberto setting up Milinkovic-Savic for a superb strike to edge in front.
There was time for more drama, though, Juve goalkeeper Wojciech Szczesny saving Ciro Immobile's penalty, and Caicedo added a third deep in added time to leave Inter two points clear at the top.

Match Events
25' GOAL! Lazio 0-1 Juventus (Ronaldo)
Dybala manages to slip Bentancur in behind the Lazio defence down the right, before the midfielder slides a perfectly weighted pass across goal towards Ronaldo, who races in to tap the ball into an empty net! That was a beautifully worked move!
40' Injured Bentancur replaced by Emre Can
46' GOAL! Lazio 1-1 Juventus (Luiz Felipe)
The hosts work a corner short, allowing Luis Alberto a better angle from which to bend in a cross and the midfielder takes full advantage by curling in a delivery that arcs just over Bonucci's despairing leap and into the path of Luiz Felipe who rises to thump a header past Szczesny from close range!
70' Red Card! Cuadrado sent off
Lazzari races onto a superb switch from Lulic and knocks it past Cuadrado to send himself clean through! However, Cuadrado cynically slides in to deliberately bring the wing-back down 30 yards from goal and the referee awards him a Red card after checking VAR.
70' Ardent conflict between Cuadrado and Bonucci
74' GOAL! Lazio 2-1 Juventus (Milinkovic-Savic)
A pinpoint, clipped throughball from Luis Alberto delicately sails over Bonucci and into the path of Milinkovic-Savic who takes the bouncing ball down before drilling a low shot at an angle beyond the despairing Szczesny!
79' Penalty Missed! (Immobile)
Juventus look completely shocked right now and they lose possession in a dangerous area again, allowing Immobile to slip Correa through on goal, before the attacker knocks it past Szczesny who trips him!
Szczesny makes a superb double save from the penalty! Immobile steps up confidently but the goalkeeper gets down low to push the initial effort out, but it ricochets straight back to the striker who volleys it back at goal where Szczesny reacts acrobatically to parry it away from harm!
95' GOAL! Lazio 3-1 Juventus (Caicedo)
LAZIO WRAP THE GAME UP WITH A THIRD GOAL! 3-1! Juventus throw everyone apart from Szczesny forward for a free-kick and Lazio clear and quickly counter. Lazzari initially races through on goal and has a shot saved superbly by Szczesny, but Caicedo diligently follows up and lashes a fierce volley into the empty net!
