JUVENTUS WIN SECOND ITALIAN SERIE A TITLE IN A ROW AFTER BEATING PALERMO 1-0


Juventus clinched their second successive Serie A title on Sunday with a controversial 1-0 win over Palermo to secure the title as the 29th league winners with three rounds remaining.

Arturo Vidal gave Juventus the lead shortly before the hour mark, firing home a debatable penalty after Massimo Donati was adjudged to have pushed over Mirko Vucinic.

The goal sparked great celebration among the home fans, who had been momentarily silenced when Palermo captain Fabrizio Miccoli hit the post.

Juventus' Paul Pogba was sent off seven minutes from time for spitting at Salvatore Aronica.

The result left Juventus provisionally 14 points clear of Napoli, who host Inter Milan later.
