Juve beats Udinese 4-1

DEFENDING champion Juventus moved atop Serie A with a 4-1 win over 10-man Udinese on Sunday that extended the Bianconeri's unbeaten streak in the Italian league to 41 matches.

The match turned when Udinese goalkeeper Zeljko Brkic was sent off for a foul on Sebastian Giovinco, leading to a penalty kick that Chile midfielder Arturo Vidal converted in the 14th minute. Mirko Vucinic doubled the lead in first-half added time and Giovinco added two more goals, in the 53rd and 71st.

Andrea Lazzari pulled one back for Udinese in the 78th.

Juventus has a full six points, having also won its opener against Parma last weekend.

Napoli and Lazio also have six points, but Juventus is ahead on goal difference. Napoli beat Fiorentina 2-1, while Lazio downed Palermo 3-0.
