Dembele’s shot from the edge of the box deflected off one home-team player before beating Juve’s goalkeeper. Messi would double the lead in the injury time from the penalty.
Alvaro Morata was the most tragic individual on the field, because three of his goals were canceled due to offside. The Spanish international was agile, but tonight his name didn’t appear on the scoresheet.
In other game of Group G, Ferencvaros reached their first UCL points, playing a draw against Dynamo Kyiv, 2-2.

-->Club Brugge couldn’t use the fact that several first-team players from Lazio didn’t play, and the Belgian champs played just 1-1 against the team from Rome. The Italians had COVID-19 infections, and the most notable absence was Ciro Immobile, European’s Golden Boot.
