Juventus celebrated another Serie A title victory with a 2-0 victory over Carpi in a party atmosphere in Turin on Sunday.

Juventus had already clinched its fifth successive title without even kicking a ball after Napoli lost 1-0 at Roma on Monday.

There was no sign of a celebration hangover as Hernanes scored his first goal for the club before substitute Simone Zaza wrapped up the points late on.

Carpi remained outside the relegation zone but is now above 18th-placed Palermo on goal difference after the Sicilian side beat Sampdoria 2-0.

Frosinone are four points behind in 19th after wasting a two-goal lead in a 3-3 draw at AC Milan.

Jeremey Menez netted a stoppage-time penalty for Milan. Mario Balotelli, who had an earlier penalty saved, also hit the bar.
