The second date of the group stage of the Champions League is completed this Wednesday with nine games. And before the beginning of one of the first planned, the one that Milan he won 3-1 once morest Dinamo Zagreb, Croatian fans who traveled to Italy gave a controversial note to the day: they marched through the streets with songs that they accompanied with the Nazi salute.
On the way to San Ciro, most of the Dinamo Zagreb fans were filmed for minutes in a worrying attitude because of the retrograde and the disastrous time that marked history and included a world war. It was a human tide wandering towards the field that seemed to come out of the time tunnel.
Later, inside the stadium, at the top of one of the headers, they continued with their particular extra soccer show by starting several photos of fire setting fabrics and papers on fire. Security, anticipating the possibility of riots or conflict, placed them well away from the rest of the game attendees.
When the ball began to roll, the Italians made the difference in a match with very nice goals, although those scored by Milan helped them win and climb to the top of group E, relegating their losers to second place, by one point .
Images just as reprehensible as those left by Croatian fans had been seen on Tuesday by German fans of Eintracht Frankfurt, who began to provoke Olympique de Marseille fans with all kinds of insults, intimidating gestures and Nazi salutes during their visit to France. The city closed its shops and schools earlier than usual, considering the game high risk.
The Juventus led 1-0 and seemed to control the game in Turin once morest Benfica. But one played in the area of the Italians generated the first controversies with the intervention of the VAR, the sanction of a penalty for a stomp (Fabio Miretti did not see Gonçalo Ramos), Joao Mario’s goal with a “Topo Gigio” celebration and the commotion between some players of both teams when those of the Juve they went over the midfielder, for his gestures in front of the Vecchia Signora fans.
Enzo Fernández y Nicholas Otamendi They were starters in the Portuguese team. The midfielder built a very good play for the decisive 2-1, scored by David Neres. at Juventus, Leandro Paredes played from the start, while Angel Di Maria he entered in the second half, with his team already at a disadvantage. In group H, Benfica -they have won 12 in a row, for any competition- leads together with PSG with a perfect score and the Italians were very complicated, with two defeats in the same number of games.
In the victory of Real Madrid 2-0 over Leipzig, of Germany, the first goal of the meringues came 11 minutes from the end. The Brazilian Vinicius put together a good play on the left, driving his marker crazy, and on the other side the Uruguayan received Federico Valverde, who changed the profile, defined next to a stick and launched a celebration out loud, dislocated. in the discount, Marco Asensio sealed the result with another great goal, in a set piece.
