TURIN, Italy (Reuters) -Juventus were held to a 1-1 draw at Torino in Serie A on Saturday after Nikola Vlasic cancelled out Juve's early opener by Kenan Yildiz in a heated derby clash that saw both coaches sent off after the break.

Juventus have become just the second team to draw at least 12 of their opening 19 matches of a Serie A season in the three-points-for-a-win era, after Inter in 2004-05

Coaches Paolo Vanoli and Thiago Motta were sent off early in the second half after both benches protested when Juventus defender Nicolo Savona brought down Yann Karamoh just outside Juve’s box.
