Juventus and Porto played the second leg of the Champions League round of 16. In the first match, the Portuguese club won with a score of 2: 1.
The teams began the meeting on a collision course, quickly overtaking midfield. And the dangerous moments at the door were not long in coming. Already in minute 3, Morata closed the canopy of Cuadrado with his head, and Marchesin showed a reaction. The response from the guests was no less dangerous. Zanusi skillfully played down the left wing and shot exactly at Taremi, after which Shchesny showed his skill, kicking the ball.
“Dragons” he snapped loudly and still they got away with it. Demiral hit Taremi on the leg in the penalty area, after which the referee pointed to the 11-meter mark. Porto captain Oliveira converted a penalty with an accurate shot.
Juventus found themselves in a very difficult situation. Now more than one goal had to be scored and another conceded ball could make the mission impossible. The Portuguese got it too, and in the wave of success they almost doubled their lead. However, Schesny played reliably after blows from Korona and Otavio. The guests did not score the second, but they achieved their strategic objective: the danger of counterattacks from rivals forced the ‘black and white’ to act with their eyes on the rear.
Before the break, the hosts created very few scoring situations in Porto’s goal. The best chance came to Morata: Manafa made a mistake and the forward shot the goalkeeper. But the distance was too short, allowing Marchesin to block the opponent’s blow.
The Portuguese in the first half confidently controlled the course of events, but at the beginning of the second half of the match, the situation changed. Cuadrado, shooting into the penalty area, found Ronaldo, who left the ball to Chiese, who shot straight at the nine. Soon, Taremi, in two minutes, managed to get two yellow cards, leaving his team in the minority. At the same time, the Porto footballer received the second yellow card for hitting the ball after the referee’s whistle. It took less than ten minutes to realize the “black and white” numerical advantage. Cuadrado’s header was closed by Chiesa herself, who scored the third goal in a two-legged clash with the Portuguese club.
After that, the home team reduced their turnover slightly. “Black and White” had the upper hand, trying to finish off the discouraged opponent. Another point was not made by Chiesa, who did not pass the goalkeeper in the left corner of the penalty area. And in compensated minutes, Cuadrado, who hit the crossbar, could snatch a ticket to the quarterfinals from his team.
In the additional halves, the pattern of play has not changed much. And the outcome was a magnificent ending to this two-legged battle. The Portuguese got a penalty 30 meters from the door. Oliveira landed a strong blow, and Schesny had no time to react to the ball that went flying under the “wall.” It is noteworthy that the soccer projectile flew between the legs of the rebounding Ronaldo.
It seemed a finite for Juventus. But two minutes later, Rabiot closed the canopy from the corner and gave hope to “black and white.” The last minutes were marked by the chaotic assaults of the Turin team in the penalty area of the dragons. They couldn’t come back: Porto survived and advanced to the next stage of the Champions League.
