MILAN - Two late goals from Mirko Vucinic and Kwadwo Asamoah sent Serie A champions Juventus back to the top of the table thanks to a 3-1 win away to Genoa yesterday.

A double strike from Brazilian midfielder Hernanes and a second-half effort from Miroslva Klose had been enough to send Lazio top thanks to a 3-1 victory away to Chievo in the day's early match.

But three days before meeting Chelsea in the Champions League, Juve showed poise and determination to remain unbeaten in 42 matches. Genoa dominated the first-half and went in for the break a goal up thanks to a 17th minute strike from Ciro Immobile.
