Unbeaten Juventus edge closer to league triumph

Unbeaten through 34 rounds, Juventus have matched AC Milan's Serie A record set in 1991-92 under Fabio Capello, when the Rossoneri went undefeated the entire season, which then lasted only 34 rounds.

No Serie A club has ever gone undefeated in a 38-round season. Juventus are also on a seven-match winning streak.

However, it didn't look like the Turin squad was going to win on Wednesday until the 79th minute, when Marco Borriello scored his first goal since transferring from Roma in January. Actually, Borriello hadn't scored since the end of last season, having been cast aside by new Roma manager Luis Enrique at the start of this campaign.

"He arrived with a lot of bad baggage but he remained humble and fought his way up in the group," Conte said of Borriello, who scored 11 goals for Roma last season. "He never gave up, he worked hard in silence with great dedication and now I hope this goal gets him the affection he deserves."

"It moved us a big step toward our dream. Marco is giving his soul for Juve and these are the type of men I'll defend with a sword, against anyone and everyone."

Novara, Juve's next opponents, are coming off a win over third-placed Lazio.

"We've still got four finals," Conte said. "In Novara we're going to find more difficulty. ... Anyhow, Juve have become competitive again, with key fundamentals. For years we sat at the banquets of others, but now we're hungry and we want to eat."

Juve's last two titles, in 2005 and 2006, were stripped in the match-fixing scandal. The last title they retain came in 2003.

What are the Sensex & the Nifty?

The Sensex is an "index". What is an index? An index is basically an indicator. It gives you a general idea about whether most of the stocks have gone up or most of the stocks have gone down. 

The Sensex is an indicator of all the major companies of the BSE. 

The Nifty is an indicator of all the major companies of the NSE.  

If the Sensex goes up, it means that the prices of the stocks of most of the major companies on the BSE have gone up. If the Sensex goes down, this tells you that the stock price of most of the major stocks on the BSE have gone down. 

Just like the Sensex represents the top stocks of the BSE, the Nifty represents the top stocks of the NSE.

Just in case you are confused, the BSE, is the Bombay Stock Exchange and the NSE is the National Stock Exchange. The BSE is situated at Bombay and the NSE is situated at Delhi. These are the major stock exchanges in the country. There are other stock exchanges like the Calcutta Stock Exchange etc. but they are not as popular as the BSE and the NSE.Most of the stock trading in the country is done though the BSE & the NSE. 

Besides Sensex and the Nifty there are many other indexes. There is an index that gives you an idea about whether the mid-cap stocks go up and down. This is called the “BSE Mid-cap Index”. There are many other types of indexes.
