Ghana and Juventus left wing back Kwadwo Asaomoah has charged his team mates to remain focused on the Serie A title despite being overtaking at the top of the table by Napoli.

Despite pipping Torino in the Turin Derby to move to the top of the table, Juventus were pushed to second spot again by Napoli who also pipped SPAL later on Sunday.

Kwadwo Asamoah in an interviewed with Premium Sport charged his colleagues to keep focused on the title and fight to the end.

"We are working well. Now we will not have to make the mistake of getting longer. We will have to stay short and focused throughout the second half,” he said.

Juventus are now 2nd on the Serie A table with 65 points behind Napoli who are leading with just a point.

With Juventus not likely to progress in the UEFA Champions League after a poor first leg encounter with Tottenham Hotspurs and Napoli losing at home in the Europa League to Bundesliga side Leipzig, both sides have turned their attention on the Serie A title.

Juventus are eyeing a seventh straight title while Napoli are looking to win the title for the first time since 1990.
