Half-Time Report: Goalless between Galatasaray, Juventus

Goalless between Galatasaray, Juventus

Galatasaray and Juventus have played out a goalless first half in their rearranged Champions League Group B tie at the Turk Telekom Arena.

The match was abandoned after 31 minutes on Tuesday night due to heavy snow in Istanbul.

Gala need a victory to join group winners Real Madrid in the last 16 of the competition, while a draw will be enough to see Juve through.

The hosts had the better chances during yesterday's shortened action as Didier Drogba and Selcuk Inan both missed decent opportunities for the hosts.

Meanwhile, Fernando Llorente flashed his effort just wide at the other end before the referee called the game off.

With snow still falling when play was resumed around 17 hours later, both teams struggled to create much at either end of the pitch.

Arturo Vidal shot wide from long range in the 40th minute before Carlos Tevez lost his footing at the crucial moment soon after.
