Brazilian wing-back Wesley gave Roma the lead in their Serie A clash against Juventus this evening, with a lovely effort from the edge of the box that curled into the far corner.

The Brazilian broke the deadlock, giving Gian Piero Gasperini’s side the lead headed into the half-time interval.

Wesley picked up the ball on the left hand side, before cutting inside neatly and taking his attempt on goal.

There was a brief moment after the goal where the Giallorossi were celebrating their goal and Juventus coach Spalletti came on to the pitch to give instructions to one of his players.

Roma defender N’Dicka initially reacted angrily towards Spalletti’s intrusion before soon after apologising.
