Champions : Juventus-Benfica 2-0

Turin, 21 January (LaPresse) – With two goals in the second half from Thuram and McKennie, Juventus beat Mourinho’s Benfica 2-0 in the match valid for the seventh day of the Champions League group stage. Thanks to this victory, the Bianconeri climb to 12 points in the standings, the same as Inter, securing a place in the playoffs and maintaining a slim chance of direct access to the round of 16. The Portuguese, who missed a penalty in the final minutes with Pavlidis slipping as he took the kick, remain stuck on 6 points, one step away from elimination from the competition.
