"Leicester" and "Juventus" advance to the Champions League quarterfinals (VIDEO)

On Tuesday at 21:45 local time, two more second leg matches of the UEFA Champions League took place. The most anticipated match took place at the "King Power" stadium, where "Leicester City" tried to recover from their defeat in Spain against "Sevilla". Under the guidance of new head coach Craig Shakespeare, after taking over from Claudio Ranieri, the English champions reached the quarter-finals by defeating the Spaniards with a score of 2-0. The first clash between the two teams in Andalusia ended in a 2-1 victory for the hosts, so "Leicester" needed to score at least one goal at home. "Sevilla" started the match quite poorly, and the hosts took advantage of it. In the 27th minute, the first goal was scored - after a set piece, the "Foxes" were led ahead by their captain Wes Morgan. During the remaining minutes of the second half, "Sevilla" failed to offer anything special to the hosts, so the score remained 1-0. The second half began with a more active game from the visitors, and Sergio Escudero soon had the chance to equalize with a long-range shot. However, the visitors from Spain were soon punished with the second "Leicester" goal - Marc Albrighton increased the hosts' lead to two goals with a precise shot. "Sevilla" still needed to score at least one goal, but their chances decreased even further when Samir Nasri received a red card after a conflict with Jamie Vardy. Nevertheless, in the 80th minute, "Sevilla" had a golden opportunity to extend the match to extra time when Kasper Schmeichel earned a penalty. Steven N'Zonzi stepped up to take it, but the "Leicester" goalkeeper from Denmark corrected his mistake and easily saved the Frenchman's shot. In the remaining time, the Spanish team failed to rescue themselves, and "Leicester" advanced to the quarter-finals with an overall score of 3-2. In the other match, Turin's "Juventus" once again outperformed "Porto" and secured a place in the next stage with a total score of 3-0. Paulo Dybala scored a decisive goal from the penalty spot in the 42nd minute. Results: "Leicester" 2 - 0 "Sevilla" (First leg: 1-2, final result: 3-2) 27' [1 - 0] W. Morgan 54' [2 - 0] M.
