ROME (Reuters) - Juventus moved closer to a third consecutive Serie A title when a long-range Paul Pogba goal beat a dogged Bologna side 1-0, while AS Roma secured second spot and a Champions League place by winning 1-0 at Fiorentina.

Antonio Conte's Juve are still eight points clear of Roma after Pogba's powerful low drive secured their 17th home win in a row this season 64 minutes into a nervy display against a well-organised Bologna team who hardly ever left their own half.
