With Cristiano Ronaldo and several other key players resting, Juventus suffered its first league defeat since April.

Substitute Stefano Sturaro, who was sold by Juventus in January after a lengthy injury spell, scored two minutes after coming off the bench for his Genoa debut and Goran Pandev sealed the result.

It was Juve’s first league defeat since April but the Bianconeri still have a commanding advantage at the top of the table. They are 18 points ahead of second-placed Napoli, which hosts Udinese later.Ronaldo wasn’t even included in the squad because the 34-year-old was given a rest following Tuesday’s hat trick against Atletico Madrid that saw Juventus overturn a first-leg deficit to reach the Champions League quarterfinals.

Paulo Dybala thought he had given Juventus the lead early in the second half but the goal was ruled out for offside. The goal eventually came in the 72nd minute from a player perhaps least expected to score as Sturaro curled in from the edge of the area for his first goal in more than three years.
