#2 Paulo Dybala
It is not very often that we see the performance of Lionel Messi being overshadowed by another player, let alone an Argentine. When Paulo Dybala took to field against Barcelona in the first leg of the quarterfinals, comparisons to Messi were inevitable.
Yet, what he achieved during the course of the next 180 minutes has further strengthened his credentials as one of the most sought after young attacking talents in the game.
The talented Argentine possesses the ability to split even the most sturdy defences apart with his mazy runs, brilliant close control and ability to find teammates in advantageous situations on the pitch. Add to the brilliant skills he possesses, his industriousness, and it is not hard to understand why he has already established himself as a fan favourite at the Juventus Stadium.
He has created 12 goal scoring opportunities in the tournament thus far and will be keen to add to those numbers come Wednesday. However, it will be his ability in front of the goal that will truly excite the Juventus faithful.
La Joya (The Jewel) has scored 4 goals in the tournament thus far, 2 of which came in the tie against Barcelona and given his ability to create time and space for himself and then clinically get the work done for his side, he is perhaps Juventus’s greatest attacking threat going into the game.
