VfB Stuttgart claimed an impressive 1-0 win at Juventus in the Champions League on Tuesday thanks to El Bilal Toure's stoppage-time strike as the hosts suffered their first loss this season.
The German side, who claimed their first Champions League victory, had been more aggressive throughout and got their reward in the 92nd minute when substitute Toure finally beat Juve's back-up goalkeeper Mattia Perin, who despite the defeat was named player of the match.
Stuttgart had wasted a golden chance to take the lead four minutes from time when Perin saved Enzo Millot's penalty after a VAR check for a Danilo foul on Anthony Rouault, with the Brazilian defender picking up a second yellow card.
The visitors also saw Deniz Undav's effort disallowed early in the second half for handball by the Germany striker but ultimately managed to end a four-match winless run in all competitions. Juve stay on six points and Stuttgart have four.
It was the first defeat for Juventus under coach Thiago Motta.
"Stuttgart certainly deserved it, they were better than us from the first minute. We must digest this as quickly as possible then get back on our feet to prepare for [the next league game at] Inter," Motta told Sky Sport Italia.
"We couldn't manage to take away the control of the game that they had ... They're a team who when they have control of the game they put you in difficulty. They have good players, they're a well structured team, well organised.
"They're a tough team to face and we suffered today and I repeat that they deserved to win."
