A maximum of six points are available in the two fixtures between AS Roma and Juventus this season - six points that can potentially decided the Serie A title race.
Miralem Pjanic is clearly aware of this.
Following a scoreless first half in Sunday's match between the two clubs at the Stadio Olimpico, Pjanic finally opened the scoring in the 62nd minute, showing why he's a genius when it comes to dead balls as he couriered a phenomenal free kick past Gianluigi Buffon, who didn't even both attempting to make a stop.
Pjanic's strike, his first home goal in Serie A since since April, means he has now scored only four fewer than a player Juventus supporters are surely missing dearly.
