Juventus patron Lapo Elkann admits he enjoyed seeing Inter Milan humbled at Catania on Friday night.

The 3-1 defeat suffered by Inter has reopened the championship race.

"It was so much fun watching Inter fall! I absolutely loved it, what a hammering they got in Catania," grinned Elkann in Tuttosport.

"I hope Juve can take advantage of it today and take lessons from it - that you must always believe."

However, he insists that he will be cheering on Jose Mourinho in the Champions League against Chelsea on Tuesday.

"I can hope the Nerazzurri win in Europe, as it is my patriotic duty and that way we won't see the Italian sides lose a place in the tournament.

"Having said that, I repeat that it was very exciting to see them lose in Sicily..."
