UCL round of 16: 5 things we learned

#2 Juventus are in real trouble

Allegri and Juve have a difficult second leg ahead

On the biggest of occasions, Massimiliano Allegri paid the price for his pragmatism and the Italian giants are in real trouble ahead of the second leg in Turin. The script did not go as planned for Juventus as they leave Wanda Metropolitano having much to do in the second leg.

The game was played at a frantic pace early on with rash challenges from both sides causing a stop-start encounter that eventually settled with both sides bossing the possession for intermittent periods in the first half.

Atletico Madrid started the second half brighter and should have taken the lead twice when Diego Costa and Antoine Griezmann somehow could not find the back of the net. Quickfire goals from the Uruguayan pair; Diego Godin and Jose Gimenez eventually gifted the advantage that Atletico Madrid's second-half play deserved.

Cristiano Ronaldo, Dybala and Mandzukic were unable to affect the game as Juventus struggled for an away goal. Considering how tight this Atletico Madrid defence is, Juve have a fight on their hands to overcome this deficit.
