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.They are not the first big name European side to be dumped out of the competition by the Dutch side.5Real 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.5Their 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. Cristiano Ronaldo was signed for around 100million in the summer as the search for just their third Champions League title went on.The Italian press are notoriously merciless when it comes to criticism of their big teams.Here is how Wednesday mornings papers looked.

Jose Mourinho was forced to apologise to a small child at Old Trafford after kicking a wall in frustration.The Manchester United boss seemed annoyed, despite watching his side fight back twice to claim a 2-2 draw with high-flying Arsenal.2And it seems the frenetic pace of the match took a toll on Mourinho, despite securing a point.Lucas Torreira was caught in midfield on the ball, waving his arms in protest as he went down. To the chagrin of the Red Devils manager, referee Andre Marriner awarded the diminutive midfielder a free-kick.With his frustrations getting the better of him, the Portuguese boss got out of his seat and kicked the wall beside him.Realising his mistake, the 55-year-old apologised to the young spectator in the stand.2Jesse Lingard rescued a point for the home side in a fast-paced clash under the Old Trafford lights.This is the second time in as many weeks the former Chelsea and Real Madrid boss has become so frustrated he has lashed out at an inanimate object close to him at Old Trafford.Following Marouane Fellaini’s last-minute winner against Young Boys in the Champions League, the United boss picked up a water bottle carrier and duly slammed it to the ground.

Former Chelsea striker Tony Cascarino believes Maurizio Sarri faces the sack if Gonzalo Higuain is not a success
Tony Cascarino believes the imminent signing of Gonzalo Higuain is Maurizio Sarris last throw of the dice at Chelsea.The Italian was left infuriated after watching the Blues fall to a 2-0 defeat to London rivals Arsenal at the Emirates on Saturday night.3Sarri launched an extraordinary attack on his players after the game accusing them of being difficult to motivate in league games.The race for the Champions League is now wide open and former Blues striker Cascarino believes Higuain has to be a success for the sake of his manager.He said on the Weekend Sports Breakfast: I dont think the Chelsea system suits everybody at Chelsea and that is the reason I think players are not buying into the way he wants to play.Because he is very determined that he is only going to play this way.3But unless he has got time and Chelsea are not a club that will be patient I think Higuain is going to be his last throw of the dice.He has to come in and work.Failure to beat Tottenham Hotspur at home in their Carabao Cup semi-final second leg will end the Blues pursuit of a trophy leaving the Europa League and the FA Cup as the only serious alternatives of silverware this season.The lack of goals up front is a real worry for Chelsea hence the decision to bring Higuain in from Juventus on a loan deal.3The introduction of Sarri-ball seemed to be an instant success at Stamford Bridge, but teams are content to simply leave men behind the ball and wait for their moments on the counter or at set-pieces.If the signing of Higuain does not solve the goalscoring situation, Cascarino believes Sarri will pay for it with his job.No, you dont get many chances, he said when talking about the Blues style of play.And I have said that Chelsea fans will know what I am saying. Ive been to games and I have watched them. We had that joke with Dan Levene yesterday and he said that the bars around Stamford Bridge are very busy.Chelsea fans know this has been coming look at their goal return in recent weeks. They just dont look like a side thats going to create.So the last throw of the dice is Higuain because otherwise I dont think he will last until the end of the season.And if he gets to the end of the season, he wont get into next season.
