Verona fight back to hold Juventus to 1-1 draw

Winless Hellas Verona ended Juventus's three-match winning streak in Serie A with a 1-1 draw on Saturday as Gift Orban's equaliser from the penalty spot in the 44th minute cancelled out Francisco Conceicao's early strike, Reuters reported.

Juventus, who drew 4-4 with Borussia Dortmund in the Champions League on Tuesday, moved to 10 points from four matches, while Verona have three points after the same number of games.

"Yes, the team was tired," Juventus coach Igor Tudor told reporters. "This is a different kind of football and we lacked energy. I have nothing to say. Even those who came on showed desire but there was no freshness."
