Turin, Jan 29 (LaPresse) – A tough home defeat for Juventus against Benfica in the last matchday of the league phase of the Champions League. The Bianconeri were unrecognizable and fragile in defense after Kalulu left the field early due to a thigh injury. In the 17th minute, Pavlidis broke the deadlock from close range on an assist from Bah after Gatti missed a header clearance. In the second half, the Portuguese side sealed the match in the 36th minute with Kocku beating Perin after a setup from Pavlidis.
