00:00.
00:04Well a very warm welcome to you on this most pleasantly clear evening.
00:07Conditions absolutely beautiful.
00:10Perfect for the beautiful game.
00:12Temperatures are kind as well.
00:14No doubt playing a hand in high attendance levels
00:18as well as an elevated level of anticipation here.
00:21Surely this is the hot ticket going around in this neck of the woods.
00:25It surely must be.
00:27Unmistakably, this is the Camp Nou staging a game
00:31in the way only the Camp Nou can.
00:35A mouth-watering game, this between two very high-quality sides.
00:39A treat for everybody here.
00:41Well, get ready for some high-grade football, Peter.
00:44Two strong teams, as you say, full of wonderful individual talent.
00:48And we have every right to anticipate some really entertaining football.
00:52As to whether we'll see a high-scoring contest,
00:56that's a little harder to predict.
00:57I'm not complaining, though, because there are good players
01:01everywhere you look around this surface,
01:03and that's a fine start in itself.
01:06And already we're underway here.
01:12Keepers' ball.
01:16Marcelo.
01:18Tony Kroos.
01:24Marcelo.
01:27Modric.
01:30Rafael Varane.
01:33And here's Bale.
01:37Finds himself eased off the ball.
01:39Well, the defence got the better of him this time, but I'm sure he'll go again.
01:48And here's Azar.
01:51Now it's Benzema.
01:53He's been taken down, and the referee has pointed at the spot.
01:57Juventus present their opponents with the best possible chance here.
02:02A lot of furious gesticulation, but it is never going to make the referee overturn a decision.
02:09Well, I think the alternative was to stand there and do nothing while he tried to score,
02:14and obviously he's not going to allow that, Peter, is he?
02:16So the would-be breakthrough moment.
02:22Oh, no, he misses from the spot.
02:25You couldn't ask for a better opportunity to equalise,
02:27but now he'll feel like the opposition have just scored.
02:32Forward it goes.
02:33And here's Benzema.
02:38And here's Bale.
02:40There's a long ball.
02:42That intervention was very necessary.
02:47And it's Higuain.
02:53Chance!
02:55Oh, just lacked a decent finish.
02:58Look, it was achievable, Peter, but it needed his best.
03:03Just to point out, Peter, that the full-backs are quite high.
03:09And what do they try to achieve?
03:11Well, it's obviously a move to push the opposition white men back
03:15and give them more to think about.
03:19Modric.
03:23Now it's Cristiano Ronaldo.
03:26Now it's Higuain.
03:31Oh, that is asking for trouble.
03:33In the end, they found themselves pending.
03:36Nowhere to go.
03:38Gets it back.
03:40Higuain.
03:41Now it's Cristiano Ronaldo.
03:43Casemiro battles to win it back.
03:48That's an untidy challenge.
03:50Free kick given.
03:51Casemiro.
03:52Just brushed off the ball there.
04:11Regardless of the outcome, it is good to see someone running at the defence like that.
04:15Ronaldo looking to get on the end of this.
04:21Cristiano Ronaldo.
04:24A chance to play it in.
04:25And that has been clear.
04:29And they're looking at the referee, but he's wave play on.
04:34Driving on now.
04:35What can they conjure from here?
04:37Marcelo tries to get it forward quickly.
04:39Baird goes for goal.
04:44And it's a goal.
04:50Oh, beautifully dispatched.
04:52There was no reaching that.
04:54Well, you know, sometimes it pays off not to think too much about things.
04:57Just put your foot through it.
04:59And that was a good example.
05:00Great contact.
05:01And the keeper had very little chance.
05:03And the help of the righteous.
05:20Okay.
05:22Never?
05:23No?
05:24No?
05:24No?
05:25No?
05:25No?
05:25No?
05:25No?
05:26No?
05:26No?
05:27No?
05:27No?
05:28No?
05:28Yeah?
05:28No?
05:29No?
05:30No?
05:30No?
05:30No?
05:30No?
05:30No?
05:30No?
05:30No?
05:31No?
05:32No?
05:33Deadlock broken, it's 1-0
05:46Yeah, and they know there's plenty of work left in this one, Peter
05:49Before they can actually say that the job is over
05:52Tony Kroos
05:55Truthfully, it was hard to see any better outcome there
05:59Good idea, just poorly executed
06:03And here's Penzema, Bale has been fouled
06:08He's through, now is he in?
06:11He'll try from distance
06:12And that will sail calmlessly fast
06:16Yeah, on another occasion, all that went wrong may come right
06:20And it's Cristiano Ronaldo
06:29Good try, the outcome could so easily have been different
06:34That's just unfortunate, really, really unfortunate
06:38And here's Equine, Motric
06:49And again, they run up against stubborn defending
07:04Marcelo
07:07And it's Benzema, Bale
07:12Good offside that time
07:14Place it out to the wing
07:28And here's Cristiano Ronaldo
07:31And here's Cristiano Ronaldo
07:39We sit high
07:42Tinked one through here
07:44He gets past his man
07:46Yeah
07:46It's a quarter
08:16Turns and goes back
08:21Modric
08:23Marcelo is flagged offside
08:41Now it's Higuain
08:43Tony Kroos
08:47He's made sure that that won't get through
08:51And it's played forward
08:57He's gone away
08:59Cristiano Ronaldo
09:01It's Cristiano Ronaldo
09:03Big relief, it just needed better contact
09:07Well it was hit with great power Peter
09:09But sadly not great precision
09:13Oh real danger here
09:21He's left his man
09:23Room for a shot
09:25It's a brilliant interception
09:27Marcelo drives it forward
09:31Hoists it forward
09:33Higuain
09:35Higuain
09:45And it's Aleksandro
09:47That's one way of trying to make things happen
09:53There's a few who could follow that example
09:57Gets away from his opponents
09:59Bale has a pop
10:01It's anyone's ball
10:03Oh well intercepted
10:05Really alerts the danger
10:07Oh well intercepted
10:09Really alerts the danger
10:11The pass
10:13The pass needed to be better than that
10:15And he knows it
10:17Bale
10:19It's Assa
10:21Now it's Cristiano Ronaldo
10:25And here's Cristiano Ronaldo
10:27Rafael Varane
10:31And here's Cristiano Ronaldo
10:33And the assistant referee
10:35And the assistant referee has his flag raised
10:37For offside
10:49Casemiro
10:51And here's Higuain
10:53Face to face with the keeper
10:55And here's Higuain
10:57Face to face with the keeper
10:59Face to face with the keeper
11:03Board pass
11:05And it's half time here
11:07So there you have it
11:08A close sport
11:09Half of football
11:10But one that still had its moments
11:12But ultimately produced just one goal
11:14And that would be a decent game up to now
11:17Not the most convincing of displays
11:19They can certainly do much better than this
11:21They'll want to keep things simple
11:22Build up their confidence
11:23And not rush into mistakes
11:29And the second half gets underway
11:45Juventus don't need to press the panic button just yet
11:50They may have to tweak their setup first
11:53If they don't grab an early goal in this second half
11:55They can't hold back though
11:59But the test key goes long
12:03Floated through
12:05He's got away
12:07Higuain
12:09Hits one
12:11Oh, that's a fine save
12:14The keeper really dug out his defense then
12:17A magnificent effort
12:29He's got away
12:31Marcelo is there to heave it away
12:33He's got away
12:34He's got away
12:35And he has been fouled there
12:37And he has been fouled there
12:39The keeper is trying to organize his defense here
12:53He knows this could be pivotal
12:55This certainly looks appetite
12:57Cristiano Ronaldo!
12:59Oh!
13:00Oh!
13:05Fail
13:07Modric
13:08Tony Kroos
13:12Now that does look a foul
13:13After he's given a free kick
13:14He gets the ticking off and needs to be very careful now
13:30Well he knew what he was taking on there Peter
13:32And special delivery from the ref
13:34Madrid seeking to maximize the moment
13:38Off the post!
13:40Off the post!
13:45Bernadeschi goes looking
13:49Ronaldo proving impossible to wrestle off the ball
13:53Modric
13:54And it's Bale
13:57Gets wrestled off the ball
14:00Now it's Cristiano Ronaldo
14:02Great strength too strong for his opponent
14:06Tony Kroos
14:07Bale
14:09Bale
14:10Really got caught in a trap there
14:11And he just couldn't get out
14:18That's all
14:37Modric
14:39Modric
14:41And it's Tony Kroos
14:45And the weighted pass
14:48Goalkeepers ball
14:51Well it's a safety in numbers approach to defending here
14:54Yeah but dropping deep can bring more trouble
14:56Yeah?
14:57Well, shots from distance and space in wider positions
15:00Besides the obvious issue of inviting most of your opposition high up the pitch
15:05Gets the better of his man
15:08Gets the better of his man
15:15Repelled by the keeper
15:17But this is exactly the approach they have to take now Peter
15:21Jim there's not too much subtlety or sophistication about this
15:24It really is a question of needs must
15:27Well, there's no two ways about it
15:29This is what they have to do
15:37Now it's Benzema
15:40Benzema unable to make it happen for all his good intentions
15:43Higuain
15:48Keeps everyone guessing
15:55Not which gets it away
16:00Sergio Ramos with a good steal well played
16:02Benzema
16:05Benzema
16:07Azar
16:08No, it's Benzema
16:10Azar
16:11Trout calling for him
16:12Up for the header
16:15That's a half decent strike
16:17They did give it a fair old crack
16:19And he'll be encouraged to step up again
16:21To step up again
16:36Tony Kroos
16:39Azar
16:43Time and again they are repelled
16:45Deathly done
16:47Too much on it
16:48And that's the keepers
16:50It's been intercepted
16:51And that will come to nothing
16:55And it's Higuain
16:59Benzema
17:01It could be Benzema
17:03This could fall anywhere
17:05Bale
17:06And they've been caught out here
17:08Balls loose
17:09Who's getting there?
17:11Kroos
17:13Lovely bit of skill
17:15Oh what a ball
17:17And the assistant referee
17:18Rightly gives him offside
17:22Well they're being caught out too much for my liking
17:24It's not rocket science
17:31And it's Higuain
17:34Dybala
17:36Higuain is fouled
17:38Well it was deliberate
17:40It was cynical
17:41And you have to understand the frustration
17:44I've been denied a clear opportunity
17:46But it had to be done
17:48Well this is a very real chance
17:49And should it go in
17:51It could be a big game changer
17:54Cristiano Ronaldo
17:55Fair attempt
17:58Just the wrong outcome
18:00Good effort
18:01Very good effort
18:02He would have at least wanted to
18:04Make the keeper work though
18:07Well no question as to who's winning the battle in midfield at the moment
18:11Some very impressive pressing in place here
18:17Down by a lack of accuracy
18:20Looses his balance
18:22Looses his balance
18:23And loses the ball
18:25Ben Sabah
18:34Has he picked him out?
18:37This is good ball retention
18:39And it should be enough from here
18:41But they want to double their advantage
18:42It's close
18:45Cristiano Ronaldo
18:49Cristiano Ronaldo
18:51Higuain
18:53Charles running with the ball at his feet
18:55And he's onside
18:59Gets the chance to cross
19:01They didn't manage to get nearly enough into the box
19:05And that speaks of little ambition
19:07Juventus are definitely not going down without a scrap
19:10Their attitude just can't be folded
19:15And it's Ben Sabah
19:17Out to the left it goes
19:19Marcelo
19:21Hazzar
19:22Striding forward facing goal
19:32Oh smart save
19:36Surely a foul free kick
19:37He is going into that little black book
19:40He is going into that little black book
19:56Needed a better pass there
19:58Bail
20:00And he's going long
20:02That's a promising ball
20:04Hazzar
20:06Chooses to go back
20:08I think it's time for them to
20:11Concentrate on closing this one out
20:13Christian that's a foul
20:15And the left has been lenient here
20:17And he'll get too many more chances
20:19And the left has been lenient here
20:21And he'll get too many more chances
20:23And it's Marcelo
20:37Tries to dink it in
20:39In with a header
20:43Oh and another time
20:45It's in
20:47A two goal lead
20:50And they're firmly in control
20:56What a super header
20:58Dispatched beautifully
21:00Yeah, I just thought he wanted that more than anyone else on the pitch
21:03And it was fully deserved
21:04He gave it everything he had
21:05I'm going to be hard
21:07Sheshoe
21:09Andrew
21:12Oh, she won't beat me
21:13Because that's my heart
21:15No way
21:17Fuck
21:19Oh, my God
21:21Not like
21:23No way
21:25Good
21:27Good
21:29Good
21:31Good
21:33Good
21:34Madrid could not have picked a better time to snatch a two-goal lead.
21:41Is there still time for a response?
21:44Or some fans are already on their way out.
21:47So that to me says everything, Peter.
21:51Oh, too much weight on that.
21:54De Ligt tries to get it forward quickly.
21:58Casemiro.
22:00The board shows there will be three extra minutes.
22:04A real chance that we can get through.
22:13And that is that.
22:15Well, this hurts the pain of defeat.
