Juventus kicked off their Champions League campaign comfortably following a 3-1 win over PSV, courtesy of Kenan Yildiz, Weston McKennie, and Nico Gonzalez goals.
Kenan Yildiz gave Juvenus the lead in impressive fashion in the 21st minute with a powerful curler that flew in off the goal post, making him the youngest goalscorer for Juventus in the UEFA Champions League. The 19 year old’s goal meant he has replaced Juventus legend Alessandro del Piero as the club’s youngest goalscorer in Europe’s elite football competition.
