12 mar 2019

Juventus defeated Atletico Madrid this evening, overturning a 2-0 deficit in the first leg to send last season's Europa League champions out of the Champions League; a Cristiano Ronaldo hat-trick proving his worth and sending the Bianconeri into the quarter-finals.

Posting on Instagram after the game, Juventus legend Gianluigi Buffon; who left the club to join PSG last summer, has congratulated the side; re-posting a picture from Giorgio Chiellini's account after the match.

The caption reads: "Congratulations to all! An undertaking like this is something extraordinary and moving.
P.S Great Mr. Allegri!!"
