Ramsey Scores As Juventus Win Inter To Reclaim Serie A Top Spot.

Juventus beat title rivals Inter Milan 2-0 on Sunday to reclaim top spot in Serie A in a game played behind closed doors due to the coronavirus outbreak.

Juventus’ game against Inter in Turin did go ahead, although in an empty Allianz Stadium, with the defending champions taking a one-point lead over Lazio at the top of the table.

The hosts broke the deadlock 10 minutes after the break, as Cristiano Ronaldo got to a low ball first inside the box, with it then falling kindly for Ramsey to sweep a low shot into the net from close range. It was the Wales midfielder’s fourth goal of the season after joining Juve from Arsenal last year. While 29-year-old Ramsey, created his side’s second goal 12 minutes later, playing a neat one-two with Paulo Dybala, who wriggled clear of two defenders and fired home.

After the game itself, Juve coach Maurizio Sarri told Sky Sport Italia that “This is an important victory, but there are still 12 games to go, so it’s a long road ahead. “It’s very positive that we barely allowed a quality side like Inter a single shot on goal.”

Antonio Conte’s third-placed Inter are now nine points adrift, but with a game in hand on Juve and Lazio.
