Villarreal could easily have beaten Juventus at home tonight, if the Italians would not have defended well and proved dangerous with counterattacks.

But, nevertheless this match is expected to be set in Turin after three weeks.

Juventus started this match furiously where they would score a goal in the 32nd second of the meeting.

Villarreal would play better after conceding the goal.

Lo Celso would have risked Juventus’ gate in the 13th minute after he got a good ball in the area, hit the ball hard but Wojciech Szczesny denied the goal to him.

Five minutes later, Villarreal would risk with Arnaut Donjuma who entered the Juventus area well, but still in place was the Juventus goalkeeper.

Juventus would be resurrected at the end of the first half.

Weston McKennie had a good try in the 38th minute but his shot was blocked by Villarreal defenders.

The same player had a good scoring opportunity in the 47th minute of the match where he made a cross for Alvaro Morata who hit outside with his head.

Villarreal’s Alberto Moreno would risk Wojciech Szczesny’s goal again 10 minutes later, with the Polish goalkeeper again in the right place to await his shot.

The equalizer for Villarreal would come in the 66th minute of the match. Ettienne Copue would have made a perfect pass for Dani Parejo who took a nice shot to score the equalizer for the home team.

Juventus’ Dusan Vlahovic would risk from the area but Villarreal goalkeeper Rulli made an amazing reception.

After this case, Juventus was under a lot of pressure from the yellow Submarine and they were lucky not to lose this match.

Everything in this match will be decided in the Allianz of Turin where Juventus will host Villarreal after two weeks.
