Milan's momentum slowed again following a bright spell after the restart and they were grateful to twice see Dybala miscue in positions he has readily scored from in the past. But Higuain would not miss. Dybala dummied Kwadwo Asamoah's pass to give the former Napoli man time and space to steady himself and fire home via the base of the post. Juve assumed complete control throughout the closing stages, with Higuain and Dybala continuing to combine but sparing Milan the humiliation of a third as Montella's men crumbled again.</blockquote>
