Group C has almost two points, thanks to Liverpool's 2-0 win over Red Star Belgrade. Napoli and Paris Saint-Germain are the first pursuers of England. Hen H is much more open than before. The main reason is Juventus' 1: 2 home defeat against Manchester United Manchester. The English miss only two points on Juve, four on Valencia. The Spaniards remained in the match before Juve's defeat with a 3-1 home win against the Young Boys of Berne without a win.
In Turin, everything seemed to indicate a home win for the favorites after Cristiano Ronaldo had a long pbad from Leonardo Bonucci (65.). On Juan Mata's free kick and after a tumultuous situation with the goal of Alex Sandro, Jose Mourinho's team still reversed the match.
The first away win of an English team against Juventus in 15 years was reminiscent of ManU's 3-2 win at Juventus in the semifinal in 1999 after a 0-2 deficit. In the next finals, United managed, with the goal scored in added time, the memorable 2-1 in Barcelona against Bayern Munich.
Ronaldo could not really rejoice after the match after his first goal in the Champions League for the "old lady", for him the defeat was completely undeserved. "We dominated the match, we had more chances," said the Portuguese. "Manchester did nothing to win, we should have won the game with a difference of three or four goals."
Manchester City would have been close to a place in the last sixteen with a convincing home draw 6-0 against Shakhtar Donetsk Barca, but 1899, Hoffenheim prevented the English champions from entering the playoffs with a 2- 0 to the Olympique de Lyon, But to catch the three points ahead of the French, the Hoffenheim now needs Schützenhilfe.
Head coach Julian Nagelsmann left no doubt, despite catching up that he had been waiting for more than one point. "There is a back door – better than it would be, but I will not develop much joy," said the 31-year-old, but was delighted with this point. "We were very lucky not to score four or five goals." Florian Grillitsch played for the guests until the 57th minute.
While City Gabriel Jesus scored a triple field in front of Lyon in first place in the group, scoring two penalties, Karim Benzema scored twice in Group G at Real Madrid 5-0 at Viktoria in Pilsen. Real Madrid coach Santiago Solari has remained on the road to success. Roma leads after a 2-1 win at CSKA Moscow, which now has five points, with the "Royal".
Bayern Munich finally celebrated in Pool E with a 2-0 win at home against AEK Athens its first success in front of its audience after four unsuccessful attempts. Robert Lewandowski beat Zlatan Ibrahimovic (SWE) and Andrij Shevchenko (UKR) with a double in the eternal list of scorers in the Champions League, with 49 goals. A goal missing Poland remains on Thierry Henry (FRA).
"We deserved to win, I'm happy with the result," said Bayern coach Niko Kovac. "It was not a firework, but we have ten points, it looks good." David Alaba played through. Bayern leads the pool in front of Ajax Amsterdam (8). The Dutch played 1: 1 in Benfica. Bayern will reach a draw at home against Benfica in just three weeks.
