Juve down Milan after Vucinic extra-time winner

09 January 2013 23:16

An extra-time strike by Mirko Vucinic gave Juventus a 2-1 victory over AC Milan on Wednesday and a place in the Italian Cup semi-finals.

Milan had taken a sixth-minute lead when top scorer Stephan El Shaarawy found the target after being set-up by fine approach work from Giampaolo Pazzini and Kevin-Prince Boateng.

But Juve were level six minutes later when Sebastian Giovinco curled a free-kick over the wall and into the top corner.

Juventus snatched an extra-time winner when Vucinic allowed an Emmanuele Giaccherini pass to reach Paolo De Ceglie whose return pass gave the Montenegro international time to slot home the vital goal.
