Match Highlights

Juventus returned with ten players in the result twice, defeating its host, RB Leipzig, 3-2, thanks to a goal scored by Francesco Conceicao in the last minutes, to achieve the full score after two rounds in the first round of the European Champions League on Wednesday.

Juventus player Dusan Vlahovic scored two goals to equalize the score after Leipzig player Benjamin Sisko scored a brace of goals.

The Turning Point

Leipzig, which lost its opening match to Atletico Madrid, responded immediately after Nicolo Fagioli fired a powerful shot that was blocked by the German team’s goalkeeper.

The Comeback

In a quick counterattack, Opinda passed the ball to Sisko inside the area, and the Slovenian striker fired a powerful shot that hit the net after it bounced off the crossbar in the 30th minute.

Juventus, who won 3-1 over PSV Eindhoven in the opening round, came back five minutes after the break when Vlahovic equalized from a low cross from Andrea Cambiasso.

The Final Minutes

Leipzig, which was prevented from scoring on two occasions in the second half by Opinda’s two attempts, regained its lead in the 65th minute from a penalty kick scored by Cisco.

Juventus, which played with ten players since the 60th minute after its goalkeeper Michele Di Gregorio was sent off after handling the ball with his hand outside the area, equalized with a tremendous shot fired by Vlahovic with his left foot.
