US EditionJuventus Brave Arctic Chill to Grab 3-2 Champions League Win in Bodo
Jonathan David scored the late winner as Juventus secured their first Champions League win this season, overcoming a late penalty equalizer by Bodo/Glimt.
- On Tuesday, Juventus substitute Jonathan David struck a stoppage-time winner to secure Juventus' first Champions League victory this season at Aspmyra stadium, Bodo.
- With the group finely poised, Juventus emphasised the importance of the three points while Bodo/Glimt noted the step up after reaching the UEFA Europa League semi-finals last season.
- Ole Didrik Blomberg opened the scoring before Juventus hit back with Lois Openda's equaliser, Weston McKennie's header, and a late penalty conceded by Juan Cabal that allowed Sondre Fet to level.
- The win boosted Juventus' position within the 36-team standings, and Juve coach Luciano Spalletti said, `This is an important victory, which the players deserved and which we dedicate to ourselves, but also to the people who came all the way here to see us`.
- Tactical tweaks and late substitutes determined the match's final phase as Nikita Haikin made fine saves to keep Bodo competitive and Kenan Yildiz said he was pleased to change the game after coming on.
