LONDON - Juventus relied on its warrior instincts, according to midfielder Blaise Matuidi, as it stunned Tottenham Hotspur 2-1 to reach the Champions League quarterfinals 4-3 on aggregate at Wembley on Wednesday.
Needing to score twice in the second half, the Italians appeared to be heading out until goals by Gonzalo Higuain and Paulo Dybala in the 64th and 67th minutes eclipsed Son Heung-min's opener for Tottenham, ending a poor run against English clubs in two-legged European ties.
Manchester United, Arsenal, Liverpool and Chelsea had all beaten Juventus in the knockout phase of the Champions League and it lost to Fulham in the Europa League.
