Manchester United fight back to beat the Italian Champions in the final five minutes and give themselves a good chance of qualifying for the Champions League knockout stages.
Juan Mata curled in a free-kick with five minutes to go, before Ashley Young's set-piece was bundled into his own net by Juventus defender Alex Sandro.
Juan Mata's free-kick was the first goal Juventus have conceded in the Champions League this season Cristiano Ronaldo had put the hosts ahead with an outstanding volley against his former club.
Juventus had hit the frame of the goal either side of half-time, with Sami Khedira striking a post and Paulo Dybala curling an effort on to the bar.
Mourinho's side offered little attacking threat at the other end, until substitute Mata beat goalkeeper Wojciech Szczesny with a well-placed free-kick from the edge of the box in the 86th minute.
Three minutes later and another United free-kick proved Juventus' undoing, as Young's in-swinging delivery was inadvertently turned in under pressure by Sandro from close range.
The visitors' late double keeps them second in Group H and two points above Valencia, who beat Young Boys 3-1 in the early kick-off, with two games still to play.
