Your support makes all the difference.Atletico Madrid scored a dramatic late equaliser as the Spanish side fought back to draw with Juventus in the Champions League.
Chances were at a premium in a tight, tactical first-half, but Juan Cuadrado opened the scoring three minutes into the second. Gonzalo Higuain did well to hold up the ball, teeing up Cuadrado who bent a fine shot around Jan Oblak, widely considered the finest goalkeeper in world football.
Juventus then thought they had secured all three points when holding midfielder Blaise Matuidi rounded off a fine counter-attack with a composed finish.
But, with time running out, Atletico staged a dramatic late comeback. First Stefan Savic nodded in from three yards out, before Hector Herrera powered home an injury time header to win a valuable point.
