On This Day: Real Madrid 0-2 Juventus, 5 November 2008: Del Piero runs the show

Juventus have not won at the Bernabéu since February 1962 when Claudio Ranieri takes them there on 5 November 2008, top of Group H and a point clear of Bernd Schuster's Real Madrid. Alessandro Del Piero has said before the game that he wants to score at the Bernabéu, and in the 17th minute Guti gives the ball away on halfway.

A teammate picks it up and feeds Del Piero, who runs unchallenged to the edge of the area and, using Fabio Cannavaro as a screen, hits a low shot past Iker Casillas. It is the visitors' only shot of the first half.

In the 67th minute Del Piero sweeps a 30 yard free kick over the wall and inside Casillas's post. Late on he sends another shot centimetres past the post, and when he is substituted in stoppage time the Bernabéu rises to give him a standing ovation.

Schuster says Juventus had two shots in the whole game and scored two goals, and both coaches praise the home applause for Del Piero. The win completes a group double over Real and sends Juventus into the last 16 with two games to spare, and they finish top of Group H.
