Zenit forward Sardar Azmoun scored a late goal in stoppage time, but it was only a consolation goal for the visitors. Juventus returned to the top of their group, displacing Chelsea, who won Malmo 1-0. Paulo Dybala was fortunate when his initial penalty miss was retaken because of encroachment, but he could make it work the second time.

Former Chelsea and Real Madrid Spanish striker Morata also had a goal ruled out for offside in the first half but was rewarded for his tireless efforts when Dybala played in for Juventus’ fourth goal. It means they progress from Group H with four wins from four, while Zenit sits third on three points.
