Both sides hit the post in an open and entertaining contest but rather than a grandstand finish, it was Juventus who had the final say when substitute Tommaso Galante fired a third in the penultimate minute of normal time. The 3-1 loss leaves the Blues on three points from their opening two games in Group H. == The selection == There were three changes for the young Blues from our matchday one victory against Zenit St Petersburg, with the injured Bashir Humphreys replaced by Luke Badley-Morgan in an otherwise unchanged back three in front of goalkeeper Teddy Sharman-Lowe. Josh Brooking and Joe Haigh also came into the side further forward, while the three goalscorers from our opening win – Jude Soonsup-Bell, Harvey Vale and Charlie Webster – all retaining their places. https://i.imgur.com/v0QuyZ2.jpg The young Blues in Turin == Hot and bothered == With the mercury hitting 26C at kick-off and the match being played on an artificial surface at Juve's training centre, these were unusual conditions for the visitors that required quick adaptation. The heat, in particular, was intense on a warm and sunny afternoon in Turin, and it was the boys in black and white who had the contest's first few half-chances through Matias Soule and Riccardo Turricchia. Yet Giovanni Garofani between the posts for the hosts was the first goalkeeper forced into action, collecting routinely in the end as Soonsup-Bell threatened with a header following a cross from the left. == Sharman-Lowe troubled == Down the other end, Sharman-Lowe was also being kept busy during an eventful opening as the contest developed an end-to-end feel. The 18-year-old saved smartly at his near post from Fabio Miretti before claiming a couple of high balls into the box with impressive composure and command. https://i.imgur.com/O3a3Rjp.jpg Sharman-Lowe makes a good save down low Samuel Iling-Junior was a familiar face for those in the Blues ranks having been a team-mate for many years prior to his switch to Italy and the winger went close to netting against his former club inside 15 minutes. Having cut inside dangerously from the left, he took aim from just inside the 18-yard box with a strike that had the requisite power but lacked the bend to hit the target. == Chances taken, chances spurned == The best Chelsea chance of the first half came midway through as Soonsup-Bell pounced on a mis-hit pass back to the goalkeeper from Felix Nzouango and advanced ominously towards goal. With Garofani stranded, it looked like the striker would chip the ball over his head but Soonsup-Bell was indecisive and allowed the Italian teenager a chance to pounce at his feet. https://i.imgur.com/AeLtz8N.jpg Josh Brooking on the ball Sharman-Lowe thwarted Soule soon after with a great save down low to his right but the Blues were breached moments later as the same player raced on to a pass over the top and lofted the bouncing ball over the keeper with an accomplished finish. == Woodwork and woes == Just like as against Zenit, Chelsea would have to come from behind in the UEFA Youth League and they almost levelled instantly as Vale thumped his strike against the post with a right-footed effort that seemingly had Garofani well beaten. https://i.imgur.com/JJwORHq.jpg Vale attacks down the left for the Blues Lewis Hall then threatened with a purposeful run into the box and a drive that narrowly cleared the Juve crossbar, though it was the young lads from the Old Lady who struck again before the break. Mulazzi latched on to Ange Chibozo's tee-up and produced a tidy left-footed finish to find the bottom corner and double the home side's advantage. == Subs bring energy but risks == Within 10 minutes of the restart, Myers had introduced three fresh faces to add energy and impetus on a draining late summertime afternoon in northern Italy. It left the Blues top heavy in attack but also made a difference as we began the second period on the front foot and Soonsup-Bell saw an effort blocked before Silko Thomas fired off target. https://i.imgur.com/VaNKxpQ.jpg Plenty of effort but the visitors were out of luck in Turin Yet Juve continued to fashion the more clear-cut chances and were left cursing Sharman-Lowe again after 51 minutes when the Chelsea goalkeeper batted away a stinging shot from the lively Soule. Iling-Junior then missed a great chance to make it 3-0 at the back post after a quick counter-attack down the right before the captain Ervin Omic became the latest to hit the woodwork with a spinning effort that Sharman-Lowe eventually managed to grasp. == Wareham's instant impact == Within minutes of that shot against the post, Myers threw on another attacker in the form of Wareham and the recent signing from Woking took little time in making his impact on the European stage. Malik Mothersille, one of our half-time introductions, probed down the right before feeding the ball back to Hall, whose inswinging delivery was dropped in towards the back post. Wing-back Thomas managed to get a decisive touch to keep the danger alive and Wareham was on hand in the six-yard with a predatory striker's finish, sweeping the ball in left-footed to halve the deficit. https://i.imgur.com/58WhkR7.jpg Wareham halves the deficit just minutes after coming on That gave the visitors hope for the final 15 minutes but we were unable to put Garofani's goal under any sustained pressure and it was Juventus who ended with a flourish when Galante provided the finish at the end of another incisive counter-attack.
