Cristiano Ronaldo gave Juventus a deserved lead in a dominant first half when he apped in after Joao Cancelo's shot was blocked - having earlier hit the post with a header.

The hosts dominated most of the game out of their 21, only three were on target, all from Ronaldo.

The atmosphere at the Allianz Arena was dampened after racist chants during Juve’s last home league game against Napoli resulted in a closure of the ‘Curva Sud’ section of the stadium. The Italian champions, though, were allowed to fill the seats with local school children.
