Scotland striker Kieron Bowie scored his second goal in three games as already relegated Hellas Verona held out for a creditable 1-1 draw away to fourth-top Juventus in Serie A.

Bowie's scuffed near-post shot from 12 yards gave the visitors the lead against the run of play after 34 minutes.

Dusan Vlahovic's curling free-kick levelled the game just after the hour mark.

Second-bottom Verona held on for a second draw in succession, but they are without a win in seven games, their return to Serie B having been confirmed by Lecce's win over Pisa on Friday.

Bowie has scored three times in 11 appearances for Verona since the 23-year-old's January transfer from Hibernian.

Meanwhile, Scotland team-mates Scott McTominay and Billy Gilmour have missed out on a second successive Serie A title after Internazionale established an unassailable 12-point lead with a 2-0 win over Parma on Sunday.

The midfield duo's second-top Napoli side had been held to a 0-0 draw away to Como on Saturday, with McTominay starting and Gilmour an unused substitute.

Fellow Scotland midfielder Lennon Miller started for Udinese in their 2-0 win on Saturday over a Torino side for whom striker Che Adams was missing through injury.

Midfielder Lewis Ferguson was a late substitute for Bologna in their 0-0 draw at home to Cagliari, while left-back Josh Doig was an unused substitute as Sassuolo beat third-top AC Milan 2-0.
