As predicted in the prelude to the match between Atletico Madrid and Juventus, for the 1st round of the 2019 Champions League, Joao Felix has been one of the most explosive players in the first minutes.
The Portuguese prodigy, who faces off against his compatriot Cristiano Ronaldo, had a great opportunity to score in the early minutes after being involved in a play that left Sarri and all the Juventus players amazed.

As seen in the images, when 9 minutes had passed, Felix took the ball in midfield, made a couple of feints, and reached the 'Juve' area. Faced with a large number of defenders in front of him, the former Benfica player had no choice but to take a shot that went very close.
Joao Felix will be one of Atletico's main weapons on Wednesday to take revenge from last year, when Atletico traveled to Turin for the round of 16 with a 2-1 advantage, only to see Cristiano Ronaldo score a hat-trick (3-0), knocking them out of the continental competition.
