Juventus regained the victories they had missed in the past two rounds, with a difficult 2-1 victory at home to Napoli, and Inter Milan overcame one of the important obstacles in their journey to regain the Italian football league title, with a precious 2-1 victory over Sassuolo today, Wednesday.
In a postponed meeting in the third round of the tournament, Juventus escaped the trap of its guest Napoli, and snatched a difficult 2-1 victory over him, to avenge his loss 0-1 against the Italian southern team last February.
Juventus opened the scoring early with its Portuguese star Cristiano Ronaldo in the 13th minute, and then his Argentine teammate (substitute) Paulo Dybala added the second goal in the 67th minute.
