Evra and Vidal cheering on Juve

Former Juventus players Patrice Evra and Arturo Vidal have sent messages of support to their old teammates after the Champions League exit.

Having lost the first leg 3-0 at home, their chances of going through to the semi-finals were slim, but it almost paid off as they were 3-0 up at the Bernabeu and 30 seconds away from extra time when Real Madrid were awarded a contentious penalty.

Having lost the first leg 3-0 at home, their chances of going through to the semi-finals were slim, but it almost paid off as they were 3-0 up at the Bernabeu and 30 seconds away from extra time when Real Madrid were awarded a contentious penalty.

“Wearing the shirt was an honour. I’m more proud when I saw your match last night now go win a 7th scudetto in row,” wrote Evra on Twitter with an image of himself in the Juve jersey.

Bayern Munich were playing a 0-0 draw with Sevilla last night to reach the semi-finals, but Vidal was in the stands due to a suspension and had his focus torn between past and present.

Those behind the Chile international spotted he was watching feed of the Real Madrid-Juventus game on his phone, cheering the Bianconeri goals and shouting in anger when the penalty was awarded.
