The Torino gets a valuable point against Juventus

Torino earned a valuable point at the Juventus Stadium where Massimiliano Allegri's team drew in extra time with a goal from Gonzalo Higuaín. 'Il Toro' prevented 'Juventus' from winning the 'scudetto' in the thirty-fifth round of the Italian championship.

Adem Ljajic opened the scoring in the 52nd minute with a superb free-kick into the angle, impossible for Neto who could only watch as the ball entered his goal. Seven minutes later, Torino was left with 10 players due to the expulsion of Ghanaian Afriyie Acquah, who received his second yellow card in the match.

The 'Vieja Signora' faced the game with numerous substitutes after their victory last Wednesday against Monaco. Allegri resorted to Higuaín, who took the place of Stefano Sturaro. And then to Miralem Pjanic, who came on in the 69th minute for Tomás Rincón. This partnership, Pjanic and Higuaín, brought the equalizer for Juventus in the 92nd minute.

The Argentine forward took advantage of a great cross from the Bosnian on the edge of the area and connected a right-footed shot to the post to at least salvage a point. With this draw, 'Juve' will have to wait at least until next weekend to celebrate the title in their visit to Roma, as they have an eight-point lead over Napoli with 9 to play.
