Juventus drew 0-0 with Ajax to move into the round of 16 in the
Europa League despite an uninspired performance.
Mohamed Sissoko hit a post with a header and Giorgio
Chiellini and Nicola Legrottaglie both saw headers cleared off the
line in the first half on Thursday.
After half time Alessandro Del Piero went closest for the
home side with a long range shot that Ajax goalkeeper Maarten
Stekelenburg pushed over the bar.
Ajax kept attacked till the end but lacked quality in front
of goal. In the closing minutes midfielder Urby Emanuelson came
close with a volley that flew just wide of the goal.
Juventus advanced 2-1 on aggregate.
