Borussia Dortmund
"Exemplary" is a great word to describe the performance against Borussia Dortmund in the round of 16. Things got off to a good start, when the Zebras won the away leg on February 24th to take a 2-1 lead in the aggregate. However, it was the home leg, played on March 18th, that really showcased the soccer club's masterful abilities.
Starting with a three-minute goal from attacker Carlos Tevez, the wearers of the Juventus jerseys took complete control of the match. The Zebras had possession, controlling the ball for 61% of play time, and when BVB did put together an offensive attack, it broke against the home defense like rain upon rock.
Juventus itself didn't actually score again until late in the match, when Alvaro Morata took an assist from Tevez to put the home side up 2-0 at the 70-minute mark. After that, though, the fight went out of Dortmund. Tevez established himself as the man of the match nine minutes later, doing the Juventus home shirt proud with his second goal of the contest.
Once full time had elapsed in the game, the Juventus home side was up 3-0 against BVB. The victory brought the aggregate score to 5-1 for the round, with the Zebras as the victors. Borussia becomes the third German football team to exit the 2014 2015 Champions League in the round of 16, following eliminations for Schalke 04 and Bayer Leverkusen. Juventus, meanwhile, remains Italy's only hope for a 2014 2015 UCL title.
Title Hopes
With their spot in the quarterfinals secured, the Zebras will now have a break from UCL play until mid-April. In the meantime, fans in the 2014 2015 Juventus jerseys will be left asking just one question: does this Italian football team have a chance of winning Europe's most prestigious club football tournament?
Given the aggregate score Juventus managed in the round of 16, it's certainly possible. Only one team managed a better aggregate (Bayern Munich, beating Shakhtar Donetsk 7-0), while Porto tied the 5-1 aggregate against Basel. Meanwhile, Real Madrid-the defending UCL champion-only managed a two-game total of 5-4 against Schalke 04, only narrowly securing a quarterfinal position.
The wearers of the Juventus home shirt 2014 2015 may also have the hunger necessary to reach the podium. Last year, the squad bowed out of the Champions League after the group stage. The year before, they were sent packing in the quarterfinals by Bayern Munich. And in the 2010 2011 and 2011 2012 seasons, the Zebras didn't even qualify for the tournament.
In fact, Juventus has only won the UCL title on two occasions-first in 1985, and most recently in 1996. By all measures, the football team is "overdue" for a victory, and with all the momentum on their side, 2014 2015 could be the season where all high hopes finally coalesce into reality.
Help push the Zebras toward a Champions League victory by shopping at Soccer Box and checking out our selection of Juventus jerseys! From the home shirt to the away kit, the third jersey to the training shirt, these jerseys will appease every fan of Italy's greatest football club.
