After netting four against Lazio, Cholito bangs a brace to beat Juve 2-1

Diego Simeone's son is sensational! Or shall we better say he's thoroughly leaving his father's shadow and becoming a mainstay at Hellas Verona and Italian Serie A.

After netting four times against Lazio (4-1), Giovanni Simeone added a brace in the Juventus tie and pushed his side to another astonishing victory (2-1).

Cholito also became only the seventh player in the history of Serie A, who scored two or more goals against Juventus in three different clubs. The last to do so was the legendary Enrico Chiesa.

Simeone broke the deadlock 11 minutes into the game, and we've witnessed his second only three minutes later. It was a thing of beauty, a classic stunner from the left that ended in a far corner of the net.

Juve only managed to score a consolation goal near the end, and with a 1-2 loss at Bentegodi, The Old Turin Lady almost definitely dropped out of the race to win the Scudetto.
