At Juventus Stadium in Turin, it was the Lions who took the lead in the 12th minute. Francisco Trincão played the ball out left to Maxi Araújo. Coming from behind, the Uruguayan struck with his left foot and put the ball in the back of Michele Di Gregorio’s net. The 'vecchia signora' leveled the score in the 34th minute. Khéphren Thuram took advantage of the green and white defense’s passivity and crossed low for Dusan Vlahovic to beat Rui Silva.

In the second half, Luciano Spalletti’s team pushed hard in search of the winning goal, but Rui Silva was one of the best players on the pitch and locked down the green and white goal. The 31-year-old Portuguese international made several top-class saves throughout the 90 minutes.

With this draw – the second in 17 matches this season – Rui Borges’s men now have seven points in the competition and are, provisionally, in 10th place.
