Villarreal 1-1 Juventus Highlights: Dusan Vlahovic scored his first Champions League goal in 31 seconds
Almost immediately afterward, however, Juventus’ attack settled down with Vlahović and Álvaro Morata not particularly threatening Villarreal. Eventually, the hosts were the ones who took control of the match with Giovani Lo Celso and Arnaut Danjuma causing problems.
The contest continued to be a nervy affair after the break with both sides pushing for the second goal and some catastrophic marking from the visitors allowed a wide-open Dani Parejo to slot the ball past Wojciech Szczęsny for 1-1.
The result means there is everything left to play for in the second leg in Italy. Additionally, Weston McKennie was forced off with an injury.
