Gonzalo Higuain came off the bench to score the winner as Juventus moved top of Serie A by beating Inter Milan 2-1 in an intense Derby d'Italia clash at San Siro.

Paulo Dybala's opener was cancelled out by a Lautaro Martinez penalty before Higuain's late decider ended Conte's unbeaten start in the league. Relive all the action:

The perfect start for Juventus! They lead inside four minutes. Dybala is picked out by Pjanic and makes his way into the box, firing off a shot that catches out Handanovic and flies into the far corner.

Ronaldo is almost set away on the left, finding space in the box. But he's closed down and can't get his shot off.

Off the bar! Ronaldo cuts inside from the left and unleashes a powerful shot which cannons back off the woodwork.

At the other end, Lukaku is played in behind the Juventus defence but is closed off before he can fire at goal.

Inter 0-1 Juventus

15 minutes

Inter have yet to really get going and look to be a little rattled by Juventus' quick start. They force a corner, though, which comes out to Barella, who sends a volley wide.

Penalty for Inter! De Ligt, in an attempt to head away a cross, has his arms raised and clearly handballs. The referee points to the spot...

GOAL! Inter 1-1 Juventus (Martinez)

18 minutes

Martinez converts from the spot! He drills his penalty low past Szczesny and Inter are level. That could prove a costly error from De Ligt.
