At 03:45 Beijing time on February 26 (20:45 local time on the 25th in Germany), in the first leg of the UEFA Champions League 1/8 finals, Lyon defeated Real Sociedad 1-0 away. Home defender Schuler's 18th-minute own goal led to defeat.
There were different injury news between the two sides before the game, Real Sociedad Russian midfielder Karpin was able to play after recovering from injury, while Lyon's former Bayern Brazilian striker Elbo was unfit for the game and was temporarily put on the bench. Real Sociedad, who are at Annotta's home stadium, had a clear start as they tried to speed up the overall tempo of the game to surprise their opponents, with Alonso testing Lyon goalkeeper Kupett in the sixth minute before Mateo Kovacevic cleared the ball three minutes later.
Real Sociedad came close to taking the lead in the 10th minute when Nihhat's cross from the right was met by De Flandre who went close to an own goal and the ball flew off the crossbar. However, Real Sociedad gifted an own goal in the 18th minute when Malouda combined with Juninho to get away from Rekalt's cross, and home defender Schuler inadvertently blocked the ball into his own goal. Lyon then began to show their speed and technique, with Real Sociedad struggling to keep their opponents tackled.

In the 60th minute, Lyon counter-attacked quickly, and Juninho's shot was blocked by the post.

Real Sociedad then fought back frantically, with Kupett denying Kovacevic twice in quick succession, and Westwood making a beautiful save on Lyon's lethal counter-attack in the 82nd minute. Unfortunately, Karpin's late free-kick from 30 yards out hit the crossbar and visitors Malauda also hit the post in stoppage time.
At 3:45 Beijing time on February 26 (20:45 local time in Spain on the 25th), in the first leg of the Champions Cup 1/8 finals that began at the Riazor Stadium, Juventus lost 0-1 away to Deportivo La Coruna, and Luke seized Thuram's mistake to score the only goal.
Juventus and Deportivo La Coruna have met six times in European competitions, with each side winning one and drawing one.
Laco will avenge their elimination by Juventus last season, they have played in the Champions League for four consecutive seasons, but their best result in history is only to reach the last eight, and this season they have encountered Juventus again. Since scoring by Juventus last season, Laco has kept a Champions League clean sheet for 483 minutes at the Estadio Riazor. Bellerón, who has a muscle injury, still starts, while Juventus striker Trezeguet recovered from a left thigh injury.
After the opening, Laco used the speed of Victor and Luke to play on both sides, and Pexoto and Thuram responded calmly. In the fourth minute, Tristan burst into the penalty area, but he couldn't get up in time, and Lerotalie struggled to chase back the sliding tackle to relieve the danger. Lippi clearly set up the defence and even Trezeguet came back to foul the tackle and Luke smashed a left-footed free-kick against the wall from 25 yards. In the 15th minute, Sergio's right-footed volley from the top of the box went wide of the left post.
Juve's midfield retreated, Deportivo La Coruna got more space and the combination became more fluid. In the 18th minute, Mauro Silva passed through the middle, Belleron took it to 20 meters in front of goal, was tackled from behind by Zambrotta, and Luque's left-footed free kick was blocked by Nedved. Seeing that Juve defended tightly, Laco stepped up his long-range shots. In the 20th minute, Belleron's shot from the edge of the penalty area was directly confiscated by Buffon. Immediately afterward, Sergio's shot from outside the box went wide of the right post. In the 23rd minute, Luque took a corner kick from the right and Sergio put an anti-aircraft gun on the edge of the penalty area.
In the 25th minute, Laco won the ball in the backfield and counterattacked quickly, Romero drove straight with the ball, and stuffed it to Belleron in front of Nedved's foot, Belleron burst into the penalty area and fell into contact with Pesoto, but Pexoto stuck the position first and did not foul. One minute later, Piero's right-footed volley from 27 yards on the left swept over the crossbar for Juve's first shot on goal. In the 30th minute, Belleron split the side, Victor shot from the right side Buffon blocked, Belleron took the ball and scored again, Victor made a low cross from the right, Tristan grabbed the point in front of the goal and fell to the ground, Laco players thought that Thuram was fouled in the tackle, but the French referee was unmoved.
In the 31st minute, Nedved made a direct pass through the middle, and Piero formed a one-on-one momentum and fired a right-footed shot from 16 meters in front of the goal, but Molina made a timely attack to seal the ball. In the 37th minute, Thuram did not deal with the ball in time, but brought out of the penalty area and hurriedly passed, but was cut off by Victor on the right side of the diagonal pass to the penalty area, Thuram hurried back to the top to clear the siege, but the ball was not far away, Luke outflanked at the back point, and scored a left-footed volley into the far corner from 8 meters away from the goal on the left side of the penalty area, and Deportivo led 1-0.
In the 40th minute, Zambrotta crossed from the right, Trezeguet fought for the top in the middle of the penalty area, collided with the opposing player and fell to the ground, Molina knocked the ball to the edge of the box, and Nedved volleyed away. Trezeguet injured his left shoulder and returned to the court after receiving treatment, but he still didn't look well. Judging from the first half, Laco had a clear advantage, with more midfield coordination and creativity than the opponent, and Juventus was busy defending most of the time, and did not play the tough style of the past, allowing the opponent to play to the fullest.
In the second half, Mikoli replaced Trezeguet, who had a shoulder injury. In the 47th minute, Belleron combined with Luke and then passed through the middle, and Victor's left-footed shot from 15 meters in front of the goal was missed, missing the opportunity to extend the score. In the 56th minute, Montero suffered a muscle strain in his right leg, and Billindelli came on as a substitute. In the 60th minute, Luke fired a low left-footed shot wide of the far post from 18 yards in front of goal. Antonio Conte replaces Pexoto and Zambrotta drops back to right-back.
In the 63rd minute, Naibert brought down Piero and was booked, Mikoli took a free kick from the right, and Conte fired the ball from nine meters in front of goal, and the ball went out close to the far post. In the 65th minute, Juve had another good chance to equalize, Tacinadi split the middle and Mikoli cut into the left side of the box to face Molina, but he didn't hit the target and the ball flew into the stands. One minute later, Victor shook off a defender and fired a left-footed volley from 17 yards in front of goal, the ball hit Lerotalie's leg and changed direction, but Buffon quickly reacted with a second hand to seal the ball off the line with his left palm.
Juventus, who are behind the scoreline, have no fighting spirit. In the 68th minute, Billindelly shoveled a cross from the right and Andrade stopped the ball on Piero, but Piero was also ill-prepared and fired a right-footed volley wide of the near post from eight yards in front of goal. In the 80th minute, Conte tackled Belleron and Sergio swept a free-kick over the crossbar from 25 yards out. In the 87th minute, Conte and Belleron fell to the ground in a scramble, his hand was still pulling Belleron's football pants, the sole of Belleron's foot touched Conte's face, and Conte's nose was bleeding and he was treated urgently.
