Juventus beat 10-man Napoli 2-0 with late long-range goals

Juventus beat Napoli 2-0 in Turin in a Serie A match at the Allianz Stadium.

Kerim Alajbegovic opened the scoring in the 70th minute with a long-range shot, and Jérémie Boga added another later in the half.

Napoli defender Luca Marianucci was sent off five minutes after Alajbegovic scored, leaving Napoli with 10 players.

Juventus had won only one of their previous four league matches, and home fans had jeered the team before the first goal.

The win eased pressure on coach Luciano Spalletti after that poor run of results.

Napoli suffered their fourth league defeat of the season.

The result leaves Juventus with a boost, while Napoli will look to respond in their next league match.
