Nigerian forward celebrated twice, but neither goal was good. Thankfully for him, Juve still found a dramatic winner against Verona

Juventus moved to the top of the Serie A table with a last-minute Andrea Cambiaso winner against Hellas Verona at the Allianz Stadium, extending their unbeaten run to five games.

The game began with Juventus getting close to an early goal, but Dusan Vlahovic's shot was blocked. Moise Kean then thought he had scored a fantastic individual goal, but it was disallowed as the ball touched Vlahovic on the way in, and he was in an offside position. It wasn't a night for the Nigerian-Italian striker.

Verona gradually grew into the game, but they struggled to create clear scoring opportunities. Vlahovic had a chance to break the deadlock but headed over the bar.

In the second half, Juventus intensified their efforts, and Kean had a goal disallowed again after a VAR review. Kean was later substituted, and his replacement, Federico Chiesa, came close to scoring, but Verona's goalkeeper, Lorenzo Montipo, denied him with a good save.

Despite numerous chances and Verona's solid defence, Juventus finally found the winner in the 97th minute when Cambiaso capitalized on a goalmouth scramble to score his first-ever goal for the club.

This victory sent Juventus to the top of the Serie A table, just two points behind league leaders Inter Milan, while Verona remains only two points above the relegation zone.
