Spanish "Barcelona" won a pragmatic victory on the road in the game of the second round of the group stage of the Champions League against the Portuguese "Sporting".

The only goal in the meeting was held at the beginning of the 2nd half - the author was the central defender of the "lions" Sebastian Coates, who, being under the pressure of the opponent, cut the ball into his own goal.

Another meeting in this group between the Italian "Juventus" and the Greek "Olympiakos" ended with a score of 2: 0 in favor of the team Massimilano Allegri. It should be noted that the victory of the "old lady" was able to secure itself only at the end of the match - first Goncalo Higuain brought his team forward, and after a while Mario Mandzhukich doubled the advantage of the Turinians and thus established the final score on the scoreboard.

So, according to the results of the first 2 rounds in Group D, the leading place is occupied by the Catalan "Barcelona" - 6 points in the "blaugranas", Juventus and Sporting have 3 points, Olympiakos, for the time being, without points.
