Juventus reports a negative figure in the Champions League
Juventus' Champions League run came to a premature end on Tuesday as the Italian club was eliminated from contention for the knockout stage; while Benfica reached the Champions League last 16 on Tuesday after winning an exciting contest with Juventus 4-3 and sending the Italians out of the competition. Juventus' balance stopped at 3 points in third place in Group H, while the French PSG and Benfica of Portugal qualified for the round of 16. Benfica is level on 11 points with leaders Paris Saint-Germain and have a chance to top the group next week, although they would need Juve to get a result against the French champions in Turin after being dumped out at the group stage for the first time in nine years.
