Only five minutes were remaining before the first leg of the long-awaited UEFA Champions League semi-final battle between Juventus and Borussia Dortmund. The fans of both teams had already filled up the stands. They were cheering at the top of their lungs while eagerly waiting for the referee to blow the kick-off whistle.
On the pitch, proceedings were also moving forward smoothly. The players had just completed most of their pre-match routines. They were taking their positions while waiting for their captains to finish the mandatory coin toss that would mainly decide which side would kick off the game.
Zachary was obviously among the Juventus starting players. He had rested enough over the past ten days and was as fresh as ever. His energy levels were sky-high, and he was ready to do his best against Borussia Dortmund.
