Video: Atletico Madrid 0 – 0 Bayer Leverkusen [Champions League] Highlights 2016/17


Diego Simeone’s side claimed a 4-2 win in the first leg of the last-16 tie in Germany and were never unduly troubled as they produced a composed performance at the Vicente Calderon.
Leverkusen had only beaten Atletico once in their previous five meetings, and although they tested Jan Oblak on a handful of occasions, a stunning comeback rarely looked likely.
Bernd Leno produced two exemplary saves to deny Angel Correa and Koke in the first half, while Antoine Griezmann saw a devilish chip drop just wide, but Atleti chances were scarce in a low-risk performance.
Oblak produced a stunning triple-save to keep the scores level after the imperious Diego Godin was for once beaten, but it proved to be as close as Leverkusen would come to suggesting they could steal a spot in the last eight.
Atleti cruised through the closing stages to secure their spot as the third LaLiga side in the next round, with their attentions now turning to a key league meeting with Sevilla at the Calderon on Sunday.

video: Juventus 1 – 0 FC Porto [Champions League] Highlights 2016/17

Image
Juventus reached the quarter-finals of the Champions League for only the second time in four years after a 1-0 win over 10-man Porto gave them a 3-0 aggregate victory. The Italian champions’ 2-0 win in Portugal three weeks earlier ensured they went into the second leg in a comfortable position, and there was to be no miraculous fightback from Porto when Maxi Pereira was sent-off for deliberate handball after 40 minutes. His indiscretion allowed Paulo Dybala to score from the penalty spot and Juventus went on to keep their sixth clean sheet in eight Champions League matches, extending an unbeaten run of home games that reaches back to August 2015. Beaten finalists in 2015, Juventus have failed to win Europe’s top competition since 1996 but Massimiliano Allegri’s side are clinical in attack and imperious in defence, conceding just twice in the tournament this season. Porto, who had scored 12 goals without reply in their three games between the two legs against Juventus, ...
