00:00In this latest installment of Aston Villa's UEFA Champions League odyssey
00:09their first appearance in this competition brings another red letter
00:13day here at Villa Park
00:19Kamara's kept that in nicely here's Bailey Watkins and McGinner up there he's
00:24gone for Ollie Watkins he's got a wall of blue in front of him Watkins turns and
00:29hits and of course it's the first corner of the game out of Pierre Kaloulu
00:36Bailey's corner into a useful area and narrowly over the top
00:42Torres arriving not quite the right contact yeah it's a clever one if they
00:47meant it pay a lot of attention to set pieces Aston Villa and it looks as if
00:51that was one that they'd rehearsed I need the deftest of deft touches that one to
00:57score
01:04I wanted the free kick for the challenge by to Ramon Watkins and that's exactly what
01:09they've got some of them are paying for a bit more punishment from Jesus Hill Manzano
01:15for this it's not too much in that at all there's been no room no fat Watkins to
01:21work in it's been difficult for him
01:26Telemans tosses it forwards Dean is up there Rogers collects Watkins Kamara it's all a bit
01:34congested but Watkins got the shot away and D Gregorio got down to beat it away I did so
01:40well to dig one out there Ollie Watkins and very little space or time to get his
01:46shot away but he gets a good one D Gregorio gets a fist to it and his
01:53far as cash
01:55well blocked by Federico Gatti and now the counter could be on for Yubei
02:01Concei Sao on the left offloads for Cambiazzo slightly behind Timothy
02:08where he's had a go and it curved away at the last they've actually been
02:15vulnerable from their own corners Aston Miller lightly and again they were
02:20having to backtrack furiously
02:24Concei Sao
02:30Concei Sao goes to the near post Martinez had to be alert
02:38didn't he just he caught that one Concei Sao
02:41so easy for those to creep in at the near post
02:45again and that's a free kick for the challenge on Watkins and here is the
03:00first yellow card for Juventus this evening which brings the biggest cheer of
03:05the night from the home supporters
03:06Dina
03:08almost perfect from Luca Dina just a couple of inches too high
03:16always difficult to get it up and down from that closer range Di Gregorio was
03:22not getting to that though it's a clever little effort
03:25Fidler's best moment of his first half
03:27where to Concei Sao has been the biggest danger for Juve so far and he's got
03:38clear of Luca Dina Rogers trying to have a nibble at him and Concei Sao was that a
03:42hand referee says Pau Torres at his arm down by his side
03:48yeah and he's about a yard or two away from him he's hit it out of him with some
03:52force you never quite know I always think the interpretation is different in
03:56Europe to what it is in the Premier League but he's he's arm he's attached to
04:02his his midriff
04:07Concei Sao darting into the area and causing problems again and Pau Torres
04:13comes across to end the problem at the expense of a corner
04:18Coat miners will bend it in
04:24well it went all the way across and did it cross the line
04:28referee says not Martinez has bailed Villa out well that was a sharp stop wasn't it
04:35had to be it's just an instinctive header
04:39Concei Sao at the far post must think he scored there but what a stop this is
04:44well how close is that in days gone by that might just have been given he was
04:54celebrating as if he knew that it hadn't crossed the line unwavering belief in
05:00himself and it turned out to be correct
05:04the Guinness found Bailey here Watkins in the middle Bailey
05:16Villa's best move their best moment to the match by some distance between them
05:24Locatelli and Di Gregorio keep out the Villa captain yeah Locatelli with a toe the
05:33vital toe yeah it does shine a favorable light on Thiago Motta bit of room here for
05:41Telemans don't think it was going in but don't think Di Gregorio was sure about it
05:54here's Rogers Rogers Rogers had to be watchful not much has come off for for
06:07that lad today it's been games this season when it could do no wrong
06:24Villa have got themselves a free kick in the last few seconds and it's another
06:34yellow card the sixth of the game
06:37hope miners
06:38is the man who's picked up the caution
06:44Telemans goes deep Di Gregorio comes and has spilled it
06:50and Villa have won it
06:55he's surely not given a foul on the keeper
07:00has he rolled it out
07:03no he hasn't
07:08or has he
07:10the Villa players did not look happy with the vets decision then
07:14it just seemed to me as if Di Gregorio made a complete hash
07:19doesn't look to be an offside there
07:22no
07:24has he given a foul against Diego Carlos if he has
07:28that is charitable in the extreme
07:31middle arm across the chest but not a great deal
07:35the goal does not stand
07:40and that is the last action of the game
07:45so no late winner at home in the Champions League for Aston Villa this time around
07:59they will stew on that and Unai Emery will have something to say I'm sure
08:07but on the balance of play
08:09Juventus will feel that they were good value to emerge from Villa Park with a point
08:14heavy Martinez produced a terrific save to keep out Francisco Conceição
08:20at the other Villa spurned a couple of openings
08:23Di Gregorio made a good save Locatelli got himself in the way
08:27but Villa will feel that Rogers should have nicked it right at the end
08:33as it is Villa's wait for a win continues Juventus
08:38Juventus a patched up Juventus leave here with a point Aston Villa nil Juventus nil
