TURIN, Italy — In a thrilling match on Monday, Juventus managed to overturn a tough first half to secure a 2-0 victory over Verona, propelling themselves to fourth place in Serie A.

With this victory, Juventus moved two points clear of Lazio, while Verona ended the match in 14th place, remaining four points away from the relegation zone.
