Italian Cup: Juventus advance to the quarter-finals with 2-0 win over Udinese


Juventus reached the quarter-finals of the Italian Cup with a 2-0 win over Udinese after teenage defender Matteo Palma scored an own goal and was awarded a penalty on Tuesday.

Juventus, who hold the record for most Italian Cup trophies with 15, will next face Atalanta or Genoa, who play each other on Wednesday.

The Bianconeri took the lead midway through the first half when US international Weston McKennie did well on the right flank before firing in a low cross that Palma turned into his own net as he tried to anticipate Jonathan David.

A video review in the second half showed that 17-year-old Palma had fouled Juan Cabal in the penalty area. Substitute Manuel Locatelli fired the resulting penalty straight down the middle.
