Juventus: How Italian press reacted to club losing to Ajax in Champions League quarter-finals

Juventus crashed out of the Champions League to Ajax on Tuesday night with a 2-1 defeat in Turin and lost 3-2 on aggregate.

Real Madrid suffered the same fate in the last-16 and now it is the exciting youngsters of Ajax who progress to the semi-finals.

Winning the Champions League has become an obsession for Juve.

Their last success was in 1996 and have lost in two finals in the last five seasons.

Domestic success is almost a given for the Serie A giants and they are on the verge of claiming an eighth successive league title.
