The dream is over.  Kaput!    An unbelievable match with Juventus eliminated after leading the game with a 2-0 and then allowing the draw for the 2-2 forcing the game in extra time.   It’s chaos, a nightmare as Bayern Munich scoring 2 more goals in 2 minutes to crash Juventus dream to pursue their journey in  the Champions League Quarterfinals.  The final aggregate result is 6-4.  The first leg at the Juventus Stadium ended with the 2-2 draw.  I’m just devastated!

Great start for Juventus!   In the 5th minute it is midfielder Paul Pogba to open the score defeating Bayern Munich goalkeeper Neuer with a right footed shot in the bottom left corner.   The first attempt was by Juventus defender Stephan Lichtsteiner with a left footed shotthat was saved in the center.

Things working out wonderful for Juventus!   The score increasing in favor of the Bianconeri.   In the 28th minute,  it is Juventus midfielder Juan Manuel Cuadrado to score with a right footed shot following a fast break defeating goalkeeper Neuer in the bottom right corner.   The assisted is by forward Álvaro Morata. Spectacular goal as Cuadrado was almost by himself all alone in front of Neuer while 3 Bayern Munich players rushed to block the goal, though, hey hey hey…. it is GOAAAAALLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLL smacking goal!
