Follow all the action as Juventus attempt to overturn a first-leg deficit against Porto in their Champions League round of 16 tie.

Andrea Pirlo’s side produced an underwhelming performance in the first leg, with Mehdi Taremi and Moussa Marega giving the Portuguese champions a commanding lead. However, Federico Chiesa handed Juve a lifeline with a late strike to give the Old Lady a vital away goal. It remains an uphill battle for Juventus, but they will be boosted by a fully “charged up” Cristiano Ronaldo.
