Juventus will take a 2-1 advantage with them to the Santiago Bernabeu after goals from Alvaro Morata and Carlos Tevez gave them a precious win over Real Madrid at Juventus Stadium.
The home side started with great intensity and were soon rewarded when former Real Madrid striker Alvaro Morata tapped the ball home after Iker Casillas could only parry Carlos Tevez’s low strike.
Real slowly gained a foothold in the game and drew level after 26 minutes when Cristiano Ronaldo nodded home from close-range after a precise volleyed cross from James Rodriguez.
The Spaniards dominated for the remainder of the first-half but were caught out ten minutes into the second period when Carlos Tevez broke away and was brought down in the area by Dani Carvajal.
The Argentine took the spotkick and drove the ball down the middle to give Juventus a deserved win and a narrow advantage going into the second leg next week.
