#3 Flop: Jose Gayá

It was a disappointing night for the talented left-back, who is undoubtedly better than his individual display showed on this occasion.

He was booked for a lazy challenge on the half-hour mark and will miss the final group stage matchday at home against Manchester United through suspension.

It essentially put a target on his back for Juventus to utilise as they accelerated down the flanks and tried to patiently build-up their attacks.

He was hesitant afterwards, perhaps for the best, although he failed to make a tackle nor interception as a result. Three clearances and a blocked shot aside, this was an evening to forget for a 23-year-old talent who continues to attract attention from Europe's top clubs.
