Juventus found themselves reduced to 10-men after French defender Pierre Kalulu received a second booking within 10 minutes after he appeared to have tripped Bastoni.

Francesco Pio Esposito put Inter Milan ahead in the 75th minute with a header into the right post from Federico DiMarco’s brilliant cross into the box.

The host piled up the pressure on Juventus in the final stages and the Old Lady bowed eventually as Piotr Zielinski rifled home a low drive from range to seal a pulsating win for Inter Milan in the 255th Derby d’Italia.
