Barcelona bows out of 2017 UCL

by Reporter

Barcelona are out of this year’s Champions League, following a 0-0 draw with Juventus at the Camp Nou on Wednesday night.

The La Liga champions came into the game, looking to overturn a 3-0 deficit from the first leg in Turin, but were unable to find a way past a resolute Juventus side.

 

Lionel Messi had the best chances to initiate a comeback, but the Argentine superstar was not at his decisive best.

 

In the other game of the night, Monaco defeated Borussia Dortmund 3-1 in France, to qualify for the last four.

 

The Ligue 1 outfit won 3-2 in Germany and when Kylian Mbappe struck again, the tie was done and dusted. Radamel Falcao and Germain scored either side of Marco Reus’ consolation effort, to seal their place in the semi-final.

 

Both teams will join Real Madrid and Atletico Madrid in Friday’s draw.
