Barcelona and Juventus share the spoils in thrilling friendly game at Soccer Champions Tour in America

Barcelona started the game on the front foot and pressed Juventus relentlessly. The Blaugrana forced Juve into making numerous mistakes and into giving the ball away more than once in the opening ten minutes.

The relentless press gave Barca chances to open the scoring but Robert Lewandowski and Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang both blasted wide.

With the hot American sun taking its toll on players, Barca were forced to take their foot off the pedal, allowing the Italian side back into the game.
