Juventus capitalized on the decision and went ahead in the 53^rd minute when Paulo Dybala opened the scoring.

Cristiano Ronaldo pulled the ball back to the box for the Argentine to open the scoring with a superb shot into the top right corner.

Ronaldo won a penalty nine minutes later and doubled the lead from the spot with a fierce shot into the middle of the goal.

The Portuguese turned creator in the 83^rd minute when a clever backheel from him set up substitute Higuain to score his sixth goal of the season.

Former Ajax defender Matthijs de Ligt added the fourth with a close-range header from Douglas Costa’s cross to complete the rout.

Juventus are chasing a ninth successive Italian title and sit at the summit with 69 points, seven clear of second placed Lazio who have a match in hand.

Lecce remained third bottom on 25 points, behind Genoa on goal difference and one point adrift of Sampdoria in 16th spot.
