Standard Sport assesses the individual performances from the Champions League semi-final second leg clash between Real Madrid and Juventus.

Alvaro Morata returned to the Bernabeu to haunt Real Madrid and send Juventus through to the Champions League Final.

The 22-year-old, who scored the opener in Turin against Carlo Ancelotti’s side, once again reminded his former boss of his striking qualities having been deemed surplus to requirements by the Liga giants.

Last season, Morata averaged a goal every 70 minutes in the league for Real, but was allowed to leave the club in the summer. Juventus snapped him up for £20 million. How sweet a signing that must feel now for Massimiliano Allegri.

In truth, Real Madrid were made to pay for not capitalising on a first half that saw Juventus’ back four fail to win a single challenge throughout the half.

Juventus will now play in their first Champions League Final for 12 years, facing Barcelona in Berlin on June 6.

But who stood out in Madrid? Scroll through the gallery below to find out.
