Carlos Tevez and Morata give Juventus edge over Borussia Dortmund
Juventus Stadium - Juventus 2 (Tevez 13, Morata 42) Borussia Dortmund 1 (Reus 18)
TALKING POINT
Do Dortmund need a striker? Yes. Ciro Immobile, playing against his former club tonight, doesn't cut it and you couldn't help but think a player of Robert Lewandowski's quality would have scored from the chances Dortmund created at Juventus Stadium. Dortmund lack firepower and need a proven striker to replace the man they lost to Bayern.
MAN OF THE MATCHAlvaro Morata (Juventus) The former Real Madrid has come on leaps and bounds since his transfer from Los Blancos, and tonight justified his selection ahead of compatriot Fernando Llorente. Morata played a key role in the opener and then took his goal with a maturity beyond his 22 years. A perfect foil for Tevez and a real star in the making.
