Juventus 3-0 Lazio

Paulo Dybala
Paulo Dybala notched his 16th goal of the season for Juventus

Paulo Dybla scored twice as Juventus edged closer to their fifth straight Serie A title with a comfortable win over 10-man Lazio.

Paul Pogba set up Mario Madzukic for the hosts' opener in the first half.

Lazio right-back Patric was then sent off for a second yellow card, before Dybala converted a penalty and finished from distance from a counter-attack.

Juve's 26th win of the season restored their nine-point lead over Napoli with four games remaining.

Third-placed Roma moved to within five points of Napoli after a dramatic comeback courtesy of 39-year-old Francesco Totti.

The Italian veteran came off the bench to score two late goals to help his side to a 3-2 victory over Torino.

Roma have now opened up a seven-point lead over Inter Milan in the race for the final Champions League spot, after Milan lost 1-0 against Genoa.

Elsewhere, Fiorentina lost 2-1 at Udinese and Chievo came from behind to thrash relegation-threatened Frosione 5-1.
