Cristiano Ronaldo Gets The Better Of Lionel Messi As They Faced Off Once Again! He scored a brace of penalties either side of a brilliant Weston McKennie volley.
The two greatest players of the last 15 years shared a pitch for the first time in over two years. Barcelona was the much favoured team going into the match.
“We are very happy. We knew it was a nearly impossible mission to come to Camp Nou and get this result, but we did it.” Ronaldo told the media after the game.
“The key was to enter with the right spirit, after 30 minutes we were already 2-0 up and from there we understood that it was possible and we made it happen.
“This result can be a great confidence boost; we needed a win against a team like Barcelona, which, regardless of the difficult moment, is still a great team.
“I hope that in the next matches we can follow this path, starting with the match against Genoa.” Ronaldo concluded.
Lionel Messi tried to inspire a hapless Barcelona in the match. His 5 shots didn’t trouble goalkeeper Gianluigi Buffon.
Barcelona have now finished second in the group. This means that they will face tougher opponents in the round of 16.
Juventus on the other hand, are jubilant for being able to overturn their position in the league table.
“Juve was good, Ronaldo helped with the two goals, but we must congratulate the whole team who played a perfect match from all points of view.” Juve coach Andrea Pirlo.
“This is a feat, but we must forget it and think about the championship starting tomorrow.”
Juventus take on Genoa in the Serie A this weekend.
