Morata finished off a counter-attack and then converted a penalty in a three-minute span of the second half.MATCH CENTREJoaquin Correa had put Lazio ahead early before Adrien Rabiot equalised for Juventus before the break.Ronaldo came on only for the final 20 minutes, which should leave him fresh for a Champions League game against Porto on Tuesday, when Juventus needs to overturn a 2-1 first-leg deficit. “As the coach (Andrea Pirlo) keeps telling us, every game from here on to the end of the season — whether in Serie A, the Champions League or the Italian Cup — is like a final,” said Juventus winger Federico Chiesa, who set up Morata's first goal.The victory moved Juventus within one point of second-place AC Milan, which visits Hellas Verona on Sunday, and within seven points of Italian leader Inter Milan, which hosts Atalanta on Monday.Juventus had won only one of its last four meetings with Lazio, including a 1-1 draw in November.
