For Juventus, on the premise that they have won Serie A for eight consecutive seasons, the Champions League championship is the championship trophy Juventus most desires. However, Juventus has repeatedly encountered obstacles in the Champions League. In this season's game, they encountered stubborn resistance from Lyon and lost 0-1 in the first round. At that time, after such a score appeared, the outside world believed that Juventus could achieve a reversal when they had Ronaldo. But now, the Champions League promotion situation has undergone a huge reversal, because the archrival Lyon has received major benefits.
In recent days, although the French Ligue 1 league has ended early, the Lyon team, which still has the Champions League task, has not relaxed, so it is preparing in an orderly manner and achieved a victory in a recent warm-up match. A big win. This time, when they played against the Swiss amateur team Valais Port, they finally achieved a 12-0 victory and easily won the game.

You must know that Depay suffered a serious knee injury during this season's game. He was absent for 7 months as a result, during which he missed the first round with Juventus. Contest. Now, with the Champions League suspended and resuming, Depay has made a strong comeback! It also means to declare war on Ronaldo from a distance. Because Lyon has defeated Juventus without Depay before. Now, with Depay's help, Lyon seems to have a greater chance of winning.
Judging from the current Champions League matchup situation, for Juventus, even if they can defeat Lyon and reach the quarterfinals, it will be difficult to continue because Juventus has suffered successive losses. When it comes to serious damage, it is deep in the death half zone. Potential opponents include super powers such as Manchester City, Real Madrid, Bayern, and Barcelona.
