Juve were awarded two contentious penalties in the match before the international break and Roma were clearly unimpressed with referee Gianluca Rocchi.
The visitors were also given a questionable spot-kick, while Roma coach Rudi Garcia was sent from the touchline and a player from each side was dismissed in the final two minutes.

"Everyone is against Juve, now I realise that."
