Juventus suffer a surprise defeat by struggling Udinese in an Italian Serie A match

Juventus have missed out on the chance to wrap up the Serie A title as they fell to a surprise 2-1 defeat at the hands of struggling Udinese.

Juve, who have been Italian champions for exactly 3,000 days, need to win one of their final three games to win their ninth title in a row.

They led through Matthijs de Ligt's powerful drive.

Juventus only need three points to seal an unprecedented ninth consecutive Serie A title - but they are out of form.

They have only won one of their past five Serie A games, but the three teams below them - Atalanta, Inter Milan and Lazio - have only won five games between them in a combined 15 matches.

There are doubts about the future of manager Maurizio Sarri, who is hoping to win the first league title of his career.
