( CNN ) -- Maicon and Samuel Eto ' o were both on target in the second half to give champions Inter Milan a 2-0 win over 10-man Juventus , a result that sees Jose Mourinho 's side return to the top of the Serie A table . The win , only Inter 's fourth in 12 league matches , sends them back to the top of the table by two points from Roma -- who can reclaim top spot if they beat Lazio in the Rome derby on Sunday . A cagey first-half exploded into life eight minutes before the interval when Juve midfielder Mo Sissoko received a second yellow card for a late challenge on Javier Zanetti . The 10-men bravely held out until the 75th minute when Inter took a stunning lead through defender Miacon . The Brazilian juggled the ball over Amauri on the edge of the area before firing a superb strike past goalkeeper Gianluigi Buffon . Mario Balotelli then struck the crossbar with a free-kick before the points were sealed in the final minute when Samuel Eto ' o was left unmarked in the area to slide home a Sulley Muntari cross .
