Just as it seemed to be heading for a stalemate, substitute Gonzalo Higuain rather sneakily won himself a penalty by dangling his leg to meet that of Nicolas Viola and Dybala converted again.

Douglas Costa finished off any Benevento hopes with a sensational solo effort, cutting inside from the right to fly into the far top corner from the edge of the area.
