Two goals from Alex Sandro and a Matthijs de Ligt header moves Juventus into third in the Serie A table with a 3-1 win over relegation strugglers Parma to bolster the Italian champions’ chances of Champions League qualification. Atalanta, one point behind, and Napoli – five behind in fifth - both play their game in hand on Thursday night as the race for the European places hots up in Italy.
YELLOW! For Ronaldo for booting the ball away in frustration moments before a deflected Parma header goes out for a corner which Cornelius heads over the bar.
Yellow card
Cristiano Ronaldo
YELLOW! For Karamoh for a late challenge.
Yellow card
Y. Karamoh
FOUR minutes of added time.
CHANCE! A long ball from Busi finds Cornelius. He chests it down but the touch is a bit heavy as he slides to get a shot away and the Dane fires it over under pressure from Bonucci.
SHOT! It's not been Ronaldo's night. He turns and attempts an audacious effort from 20-yards out, but he smashes it high and wide.
YELLOW! For Hernani for cynically tripping up Kulusevski. It's been a relatively clean game with that being only the second yellow of the evening. McKennie was booked in the first.
Yellow card
Hernani
Juventus look content to see this game out. They're not really pushing up anymore, but Parma are still fighting hard. Every goal matters for the side who sit 19th in the table on 20 points and 11 off safety.
SUB! Dybala comes off for Morata.

P. Dybala
CHANCES! A threatening cross into the box from Kurtici finds Karamoh from only a few yards out but his header is tipped over by Buffon! It may have been going over anyway. The following corner is nodded on goal by Bani, but he nods over!
SUBS! For Parma they have now used all five of their subs. Busi and Karamoh come on for Man and Pezzella.

Y. Karamoh
Off
D. Man
GOOD SAVE! Colombi produces a good save with his feet to deny Dybala's low shot looking for the bottom corner from inside the area.
Juventus look very comfortable now and could even grab a fourth here. Parma look a bit tired now.
SUBS! THREE subs for Juventus. Cuadrado, Bentancur and McKennie come off for Ramsey, Rabiot and Kulusevski.

A. Ramsey
Off
W. McKennie
OH DEAR! Cuadrado's shot is pushed away by Colombi and comes off Ronaldo's back! SUB! Hernani is on for Brugman. Ramsey looks to be set to come on for Juventus...
GOAL!!!!! Juventus win a corner kick. Cuadrado swings it in and De Ligt powers his near-post header into the net! Juve have breathing space!
Goal
M. de Ligt
A good cross in from Danilo is nodded on goal by McKennie but it comes off the back of Ronaldo's head - who was in an offside position - and the flag is raised.
Parma win a corner and Brugman swings it in.... Osorio sends a powerful header on goal and it is CLEARED OFF THE LINE by Arthur! It's a let-off for Juventus!
On
V. Mihaila
Off
Gervinho
Another wayward arm from Pelle strikes Bonucci yet again! The centre back remonstrates with the referee SUBS! but it does not really matter now as the former Southampton striker comes off for another target man... Andreas Cornelius. Gervinho also comes off for Mihaila.
On
A. Cornelius
Off
G. Pellè
Pelle takes an unintentional swipe at Bonucci and the Italian defender has his face in his hands. Play is stopped so the Italian defender can receive medical treatment but he looks OK to continue.
