Vidal's Delivers For Juventus

Juventus today took the early lead in their UEFA champions league quarter final clash against Monaco earlier today.

The Italian team got the lead through Chilean international, Arturo Vidal in the 57th minute.

Vidal Gives Juve The Lead

The Chile international clinically dispatched his seventh goal of the season in all competitions in the 57th minute, although Monaco claimed that Ricardo Carvalho’s foul on Alvaro Morata had occurred outside the area.

Andrea Pirlo had his first Juve appearance since getting injured in the Borussia Dortmund clash in Febraury.
It was Pirlo’s lofted pass to Morata, which Morata looked likely to latch onto until he stumbled under contact from Carvalho, with replays suggesting the initial foul had taken place outside the box.

Vidal’s successful penalty was a welcome relief, after the midfielder had earlier wasted a gilt-edged chance to break the deadlock at the end of the first half.
Meanwhile in the other, Champions league clash Athletico and Real Madrid played out a goalless draw in the Madrid derby.
