00:00That midfield for the diamond midfield, particularly the attack-minded players there,
00:04I think eventually over two legs will pick the holes in this slightly aging Juventus defence.
00:12So out they come, two special teams on a special night in Rene Chirin, some of the finest players in
00:19the world.
00:21Well, the vast majority of the players were involved in the final in Cardiff last season.
00:26Both groups are used to being involved at this stage of this competition.
00:40So let's have a look at the team news, starting with Chirin, he's a centre-back,
00:44he had a Torrey time as a right-back in the final in Cardiff last season.
00:49A diamond of Real Madrid, exceptional at times.
00:53There's Ronaldo, looks in the first cross, Hasemiro at the base.
00:59This goes onside here.
01:02Into Ronaldo!
01:04Every time they need a goal, Cristiano Ronaldo finds it.
01:09It's another one in the Champions League, 118.
01:13And the master marksman strikes again in Europe, Juventus still, Real Madrid one, who else?
01:21Normal say, this was Juventus Real Madrid and that man in picture.
01:25Look at his movements.
01:27The most dangerous man on the planet, nobody picks him up.
01:29Real sloppy play over there, this is too easy this, Marcelo.
01:32Inside, outside, to Isco's, way onside.
01:34Look at Ronaldo, who's got him?
01:36Nobody's got him.
01:37That's right, a ball's in the back of the net.
01:39The most prolific man on the planet, scored again, it's 1-0 Madrid.
01:43It's in 25 games for Juventus, but that's now...
01:47He trained for the first time last night, that's nice.
01:51Here's Dybala, and that's a vital challenge in there by Sergio Ramos,
01:55who makes a habit of doing that in big games like this.
01:57Yeah, he does.
01:58Nice play by Juve.
02:01Nice and sharp.
02:02Got a yellow card tonight.
02:04Danny Carvajal's got a cross-flow just in time.
02:11But, yeah, you can see he can...
02:16Might lead.
02:19Nick Crowe's corner.
02:22It's a free header as well in there,
02:25for the French international centre-back, Varane.
02:27Yeah, he probably should have done better as well.
02:30Just slightly behind him.
02:32That's just astonishing.
02:34Here's Higuain, slips away from Varane.
02:37Dybala's coming in, so he's better for...
02:39Ramos there for the second time for Real Madrid.
02:44Higuain again.
02:49Lovely skill there by Higuain.
02:51Eyes of the good players tonight that have dominated this competition in recent times.
02:59Here's Ronaldo, Benzema.
03:03Higuain.
03:03Now Dybala.
03:05Varane got a vital touch, and they pass Omiro there to pick up the pieces.
03:13Lovely player by Tom Cruise for Real Madrid.
03:17Now Ronaldo.
03:18Here's Isco.
03:20We do know, just from the top of the matches aside,
03:23about the attitude of this Juventus team.
03:26They've got a free kick here.
03:28For you, they...
03:29Free kick taken by Dybala.
03:31It's a good one as well.
03:32Brilliant save by Navas.
03:33But did I Higuain?
03:36Outstanding reflexes by the Real Madrid goalkeeper.
03:41Higuain from Point Blanbray.
03:46Ali Carvajal on the overlap.
03:48It's Benzema in the snare.
03:50Here's Kadira.
03:54Now Dybala.
03:55Crowd wants of the...
03:56It was 0-0.
03:58That gives Juve the opportunity to get back into this game.
04:02Well, there's a suspension for Rodrigo Bentancourt.
04:06He's one of the three for Juve.
04:07A yellow card away from the bank.
04:10And the foul there on Casemiro meets his...
04:14Here's Ronaldo.
04:15Here's Ronaldo.
04:16Saldo.
04:20Give Vecilio for Juventus.
04:23Any kind of touch from Dybala.
04:25And surely it would have been 1-1.
04:27Yeah, it was a shot from Vecilio, wasn't it?
04:30Whether he could have sort of arched it away as a cross.
04:33A little bit more bend.
04:34Loads of white shirts flying in, which is good to see.
04:43Benzema.
04:44Kroos can hit one!
04:46And hits the bar.
04:50Thumping effort for Real Madrid.
04:52Yeah, he's the one you want to fall to.
04:53Tony Kroos, he strikes a really nice ball, as you can see there.
04:59He's from, we've had no chance, haven't he?
05:01He's diving across, of course.
05:03Left hand's in the air.
05:04That was too quick and too powerful.
05:07He doesn't score many, Tony Kroos, but for him he's on an absolute surge at the moment.
05:11Two goals in seven minutes.
05:13And this fella gets involved.
05:14Now Samoa gives him a nudge.
05:15Too strong.
05:18Couldn't...
05:18Kielini was there.
05:21And then Keylor Navas denying that, that might well have fallen nicely for Bartali, but what an opportunity at the
05:28outset for Kielini.
05:29It's an amazing opportunity and one that you normally look at that.
05:33You watch him to Bentancur, here's Dybala.
05:37That's a free kick given away by Modric.
05:40A shooting position here for Juventus.
05:43Yeah, he has a nibble, Modric doesn't get there.
05:49Great position now.
05:51You see, he's going nowhere Dybala, he's just running across the Madrid box.
05:56As it...
05:56Paolo Dybala for Juventus and Strauss rolls away from Ramos.
06:01Now Dybala, Dybala's gone down and he says no penalty again.
06:05Yeah, I'll have to see that again, but he looks as if he throws himself to me.
06:09He's given the yellow card there to Dybala for simulation.
06:12And the fact that he's walked away with his head down, Dybala, I think it says it all is reaction.
06:20Samoa sends it forward with Kielini, one to the flick, one to the penalty too.
06:25Referee was looking right at it, it struck Varane.
06:31Dybala's onside.
06:33Yeah, I don't know about that.
06:34Dybala wasn't, and he goes, allowed him to play like this.
06:37Well, there's the half-time whistle, and it's the Champions League holders who have the lead at half-time.
06:43Thank you, fellas.
06:44So, the team's out for the second half.
06:47Neither manager has made a change, although the Juventus substitute...
06:53All the way through.
06:55Nobody had gambled there.
06:56Yeah.
07:00Nice ball, wasn't it?
07:04They are the masters, aren't they, controlling the tempo of matches at this stage.
07:07Here's Ben Kielini, and now Higuain.
07:10Harvajal have quickly moved in off the flank, but he's given away the free kick.
07:13Yeah, that was a foul as well, he doesn't get any of the ball.
07:16Dybala with a free kick.
07:19Nahas came through a defender, mis-kicked by Higuain, and then Benzhancourt couldn't find the finish.
07:26And Sergio Ramos is down, sharpens on the bench as he conceded.
07:59Stage, here's Benzhancourt.
08:01Marcelo behind the wall.
08:02It's deflected!
08:04And it was agonisingly close to an equaliser.
08:08Navas had gone completely the other way.
08:10Yeah, as you would expect from the goalkeeper, he has to get guard that side.
08:14So, Marcelo hiding it.
08:15There's Dybala, moves away from Varane, as he caught there by Modric, yes.
08:21Yeah, Luka Modric thinks no.
08:24I think Dybala is pulled slightly when he turns away.
08:30Whether Modric catches him is another thing.
08:36But they've lacked the way by Buffon.
08:40And then Ronaldo!
08:43What a goal by Cristiano Ronaldo!
08:48Sensational!
08:49The greatest sportsman in the history of the Champions League, with an absolute beauty!
08:55Oh, my word, if you pipe up to us, all the Juventus fans around us are on their feet applauding.
09:03What an incredible sight we can see around the ground, not just the Real Madrid fans, but the Juventus fans!
09:11I mean, this is nice to pick out Lucas Vazquez.
09:15And watch this, everybody!
09:17Boom!
09:19We were here when we saw one of the greatest goals in the Champions League.
09:26I have never seen an away crowd, to a man, give a standing ovation to the opposition's best player after
09:33a goal like that.
09:35Yeah, yeah, look at that!
09:37Every time...
09:38Laws have them after the end of the game, what did they say about Ronaldo?
09:42That's a red card.
09:45Dybala.
09:46Dybala, second.
09:48Got the first one for simulation, just before half-time.
09:52The major in the stadium tonight, the Mexican legend, Hugo Sancho.
09:57I'm with you, I've been around in football.
09:59Missed competition, at the age of, what, 32?
10:03The Juventus against Real Madrid, they had Quadrado sent off in the...
10:08Put a bit of pressure on Lucas Vazquez.
10:18That's Cristiano Ronaldo.
10:25What a waste.
10:28At least he smashed one high.
10:31Let's go to Marcelo.
10:32Ronaldo.
10:34Marcelo.
10:35Buffon was there, but they can't stop it.
10:38Round the trip, make it 3-0.
10:40And Marcelo helps himself to a goal in the Champions League.
10:46Yeah, that was a really nice ball, wasn't it?
10:49That had nothing to do with being down to ten men.
10:52That all was about one touch, movement, an array of shapes.
10:56Onside.
10:59Click over.
11:01Buffon.
11:042-1-2, but this end of the Champions League comes around, quarters, semis, weather.
11:12Marco Asensio, Vazquez has made the run into the middle,
11:15instead it goes to Luka Modric, who tried for the outside of the foot one, didn't he?
11:20Well, that's as well, he finds that easier, doesn't he?
11:23The only surprising thing was he put it over the bar normally.
11:31Ronaldo's in for the hat-trick.
11:39Ronaldo, and then Kovacic, hits the bar.
11:42It's like slow motion at the moment, isn't it?
11:44Unfortunately for you, Dave.
11:50This is...
11:51Nobody closing down the ball, just backing off.
11:55Off the ball by Aleksandro.
11:56That's Cristiano Ronaldo.
11:59Buffon denied him the hat-trick.
12:05He had a quiet first half, Ronaldo, didn't he?
12:08Ronaldo's in.
12:09It's a lovely ball, Ronaldo's waiting for the cross, there it is!
12:12Oh, what a chance!
12:13Well, he is human after all.
12:15Yeah.
12:17He's looking at Lucas Vazquez, he didn't need to smash it in like...
12:20Cristiano Ronaldo's night.
12:23118 and 119 in the Champions League.
12:26His second goal, simply sensational.
12:29The holders in control, it's finished.
12:32Juventus nil, Real Madrid 3.
12:37Well, I think we've witnessed something rather special this evening.
12:41One of the greatest...
