Diego Godin's goal was his first Champions League strike since 2014Atletico Madrid claimed a big victory over Juventus in the Champions League last 16 first leg thanks to two goals from their centre-backs at set-pieces. Nine of their starting line-up have played in a Champions League final for Atletico, with four playing in both 2014 and 2016. Juventus have faced Atletico more times without winning than against any other opponent in the Champions League (D1 L2). Since the start of the 2013-14 season, Atletico have kept 12 clean sheets in the Champions League knockout stages - only Real Madrid (13) have managed more. Gimenez has scored two goals in the Champions League this season - he had not netted in any of his previous four campaigns before 2018-19.
