Juventus back in the Scudetto hunt with 2-1 win over Roma

Juventus kept themselves in the Serie A Scudetto race with a 2-1 home win over AS Roma on Saturday, with Francisco Conceicao and Lois Openda netting the goals for the home side and Tommaso Baldanzi scoring for the visitors, Reuters reported. 

With the top three clubs all away at the Italian Super Cup in Saudi Arabia, Roma were looking to take advantage and move level on points with leaders Inter Milan. Instead, Juventus moved back into the title hunt, one point behind Roma.

Roma remain fourth in the standings on 30 points, with Juventus fifth. AC Milan are in second place, with Napoli third, according to Reuters.
