Juventus
has been crowned Serie A champion for nine consecutive seasons, but it
would appear the Turin club's stranglehold on the Scudetto could finally
be coming to an end.
The
Old Lady was beaten 2-0 by Inter Milan thanks to goals from Arturo
Vidal and Nicolo Barella, as Antonio Conte's side moved level on points
with city rival AC Milan at the top of the table.
There
had been some controversy involving Vidal prior to kick off, as video
footage appeared to show him kissing the Juventus badge on Giorgio
Chiellini's chest as he greeted his former teammate.
Vidal spent four years at Juventus between 2011 and 2015, winning seven major titles during his time at the club.
After
the game, Vidal denied intending to kiss the badge and there was
certainly no questioning the Chilean's loyalty once the match had
started as his thumping header gave Inter a deserved lead.
Barella
secured the three points in the second half as Juventus stays in fifth
place, now seven points behind the two Milan clubs.
The win was also Conte's first in the Derby d'Italia as Inter boss, having previously managed Juventus between 2011 and 2014.
