Substitute Emanuele Giaccherini scored a stoppage-time winner to help Juventus secure a 1-0 home win over Catania that takes the Old Lady nine points clear of second-place Napoli.With Napoli losing 2-0 to Chievo on Sunday, Juve had the chance to take a commanding lead at the top of Serie A.But the home side struggled to break down a stubborn Catania defense until the dying moments.Catania goalkeeper Mariano Andujar made a few key saves, while Juve forwards Sebastian Giovinco and Mirko Vucinic were off the mark.However, Juve boss Antonio Conte inserted Giaccherini 15 minutes from time and he livened up the attack before netting the winning goal in added time.Paul Pogba's deflected cross was parried by Andujar, but it fell straight to Giaccherini, who took a touch before firing the ball inside the left post.Juventus is now a firm favorite to retain the title with a nine-point advantage and only 10 games to play.Chievo 2, Napoli 0Verona, Italy - Napoli's title ambitions took a severe blow...
