Juventus aims to finish off Porto in Champions League round of 16

Juventus grabbed a massive advantage in the first leg of the Champions League round of 16 thanks to two away goals, and the Old Lady will look to finish off Porto at home to secure a place in the quarterfinals.

Substitutes Marko Pjaca and Dani Alves scored within two minutes of each other at the Estadio do Dragao, and Gianluigi Buffon posted the clean sheet to give Juventus the 2-0 lead that it caries to Tuesday's clash in Turin.

Porto needs to deliver an identical output all while keeping Juventus's high-octane attacking featuring Gonzalo Higuain, Paulo Dybala and Juan Cuadrado off the scoresheet just to force extra time.
