UEFA CL Group H: Home Draw Lock Up Group Title For Juve

Group H play in the UEFA Champions League concluded Wednesday.

At Turin, Italy:

Despite being held to a 0-0 stalemate by already-eliminated-from-European-competition BATE Borisov, Juventus still locked up first place in Group H. Juve's Sebastian Giovinco is pictured here firing a free kick over the crossbar. The Belorussian club managed to gain a draw in both games against The Grand Old Lady.

At Madrid:

The Juande Ramos (ex-Tottenham Hotspur manager) regime at Real Madrid got off on the right foot as the hosts overpowered UEFA Cup Final 32-bound Zenit Saint Petersburg 3-0. Raul Gonzalez (25', he's seen here celebrating, 57') and Arjen Robben (50') provided the scoring for the Group H runners-up.
