TURIN, Italy (Reuters) - Juventus conceded their first Serie A goal this season as a late Razvan Marin penalty snatched a 1-1 draw for visitors Cagliari on Sunday.

Dusan Vlahovic put Juventus ahead from the penalty spot in the 15th minute and despite dominating for most of the game, the home side were unable to find a second goal, and were made to pay two minutes from time when Marin converted.

Juventus, who had not conceded a goal in their opening six Serie A games, had Francisco Conceicao sent off in the final minutes, after he received a second booking for simulation and Cagliari held on to take an unexpected point away from Turin.

The draw denied Juventus the chance to move back into second place in the standings, and they are third on 13 points, one behind defending champions Inter Milan in second and two behind leaders Napoli. Cagliari are 15th on six points.
