Juve knocks out Freiburg: Di Maria decides
Juventus-Friburg 1-0
The first leg match of the Europa League round of 16 goes to Juventus. Deciding the challenge at the Allianz Stadium was a goal by the usual Di Maria, who at the beginning of the second half, on a brushstroke from Kostic from the left, slotted a beautiful header under the crossbar of the goal defended by Flekken. The Germans found the equalizer ten minutes later through Holer, but Var cancelled it all out due to a touch of Ginter’s hands.
The Bianconeri thus win the first leg. The return leg is scheduled for Thursday, March 16, in Germany at 6:45 p.m.
