Adjust Comment Print

Paulo Dybala's opening goal was the result of a brilliant finish, and made sure Juventus did not waste their early advantage.

The match pitted Chiellini against Barcelona forward Luis Suarez for the first time since the infamous incident at the 2014 World Cup when the Uruguayan bit the Italian defender.

They will now need another miracle back at home, if they want to qualify for the last four.

"If Barcelona didn't do well, it is because of our merits and how well we played".

Enrique was left frustrated by the similarity between Barca's poor start on Tuesday and their first-leg result in the previous round, when they lost 4-0 to Paris Saint-Germain on February 14. "We ve had very little luck of late, and now I can only hope that from tomorrow we get back on our feet".

"I am very happy - very happy because as a child I wanted to live these moments and today I managed it", Dybala told Mediaset Premium. But I take responsibility for this.

The Russian Defense Ministry said Wednesday that those strikes were not as effective as the United States claims. But he also appeared to rule out deeper involvement, saying: "Are we going to get involved with Syria? No".

"The second half was much better, but I can't get the first half out of my head".

"I think that he played an extraordinary game", added Allegri. Juventus won 3-0.

Dybala outshone Argentina teammate Lionel Messi as well as the Spanish winners' other stars by netting a sublime first half brace.

Argentina forward Paulo Dybala outshone his worldwide compatriot, Barcelona's Lionel Messi, with two expertly taken goals in a stellar first half display that gave Juventus a commanding lead.

The third goal did eventually come for the hosts, after lax marking from Javier Mascherano allowed Giorgio Chiellini to head home from a corner.

Dybala has registered 16 goals in his 35 appearances for Juventus this season, compared with Messi's slightly more impressive ratio of a goal per game in his 43 matches this year.
