A day after the Primavera took the spoils away at Spezia, Juventus’ Under 17s and Under 15s completed a perfect weekend for the J-Academy with wins on Sunday over Fiorentina and Virtus Entella respectively.

First up, Felice Tufano’s team secured an all-important victory in Florence to ensure that they close the calendar year at the top of the table, while extending the gap between themselves and the third-placed Viola to seven points.

The Bianconeri would need to fight their way back from a goal down after Gabriele Gori put the hosts in front at the start of the second half.

Strikes by Simone Mancini and Massimo N’Cede Goh completed the comeback to seal their side’s 10th success of the campaign so far – one which moves Tufano’s charges up to 30 points at the halfway point of the season. Their first fixture of the New Year sees them travel to Sassuolo on Sunday 10 January.

Meanwhile, over in Vinovo, Juventus’ Under 15s cruised to a comfortable 3-0 victory over Virtus Entella, courtesy of Ibrahima Diallo’s hat-trick.

Upon securing a fifth win in their last six outings, Davide Cei’s young guns rise to 21 points in the league and they’ll be hoping to take their rich vein of form into 2016 with a home tie against Savona next in the programme on 10 January.
