Juventus 3-1 Catania

Juventus go top of the Serie A table with a 3-1 win at home to Catania.

Juventus have gone top of the Serie A table with a 3-1 win at home to Catania.

The visitors took a shock lead after four minutes when Pablo Cesar Barrientos was able to curl a low shot into the bottom corner from the edge of the area.

Juve drew level in the 22nd minute as Andrea Pirlo's free kick deceived Tomas Kosicky in the Catania goal.

Both sides hit the woodwork before the break as Fabio Quagliarella and Francesco Lodi both saw their efforts canon off the bar.

Catania were reduced to 10 men just after the hour when Marco Motta picked up his second yellow card for a reckless challenge.

Juventus made their numerical advantage pay in the 74th minute when Giorgio Chiellini headed in from Pirlo's free kick after Kosicky had misjudged the flight of the ball.

The win was sealed with 10 minutes to play as Quagliarella's shot found its way past Kosicky.
