Juventus must believe anything is possible in their bid to produce a Champions League great escape against Real Madrid, says Andrea Pirlo.
Madrid put one foot in the semi-finals with a devastating first-leg showing in Turin, Cristiano Ronaldo scoring twice – including a wonderful overhead kick – and Marcelo adding the third.

Luis Enrique says he is unable to satisfy the demands of every player in the Barcelona squad as Aleix Vidal continues to struggle for minutes early in 2016-17.

Barcelona star Javier Mascherano has named Claude Makelele as his footballing hero.
The midfielder, who has often helped out in defence since arriving at Camp Nou from Liverpool in 2010, believes the former Chelsea and Real Madrid player is among the best he has seen play in the holding role.
My hero always was Makelele, he told Barcelona s website. When I was young I always tried to copy him because, as a holding midfielder, he was one of the biggest players in that position.
I always watched him and tried to learn from him. Also I had the chance to play against him when I was at Liverpool and he was at Chelsea. As a holding midfielder, he was the best I have seen.
