Stuttgart beat Juventus 1-0 in the Champions League on Tuesday. El Bilal Toure netted the only goal of the game in the 92nd minute to hand his side a victory, just minutes after Enzo Millot had missed a penalty for the visitors. The Bianconeri were surprisingly toothless on the night, and were often found out in defense, though some brilliant goalkeeping from Mattia Perin kept them in the match until the end. However, the Reds eventually saw their persistence pay off in the added minutes when Toure stunned the home crowd with a clinical strike that Perin couldn’t do anything about. Here are the player ratings for Juventus and Stuttgart:
