A superb solo goal from Francisco Conceicao with eight minutes remaining claimed 10-man Juventus a 3-2 win at RB Leipzig in a wild match on Wednesday.
Juventus lost two players, including captain Gleison Bremer, to injury in the first 12 minutes. They twice fell behind to goals from Benjamin Sesko and twice equalised through Dusan Vlahovic, the second of which was a stunner from well outside the box.
The visitors were reduced to 10 men after 59 minutes when goalkeeper Michele Di Gregorio handled outside the box but continued to attack until Conceicao dribbled into the heart of the Leipzig defence and slotted home.
The win keeps Juventus' unbeaten start in all competitions under Thiago Motta alive, while making it two from two in the Champions League.
