This is no bottle job. 2-0 is not that hard to turn around considering the style of these teams, just like it wasn't that hard to obtain by Atletico in the first place.

Atletico seem a bit disconnected from the game, maybe it's the 2-0 frist leg result to blame... They must score.

What has to be said about him he has winner mentality, and he is spreading it on his teammates. One thing he is better for sure than Messi.
That match against Psg, i remember Neymar being the only believer after psg goal.

Totally. And sadly for Messi, it's a pretty important trait. It ties to leadership and mentality.

They bought him to make that difference in CL, he is the best goalscorer in that competition, just a normal cl night for him, just cross the ball in the box, he will catch few

Nah, Messi is a born winner too, you don't put together a career like his without it. and But CR7 has definitely the greater motivation and drive.

This is my only critique against Messi of late (since 2015). Show extra effort in the CL KO games. You can't tell me this is the same CR7 effort from a sat night against genoa.

Problem for Atletico is that sitting back and absorbing pressure doesn't really work when you have a lethal striker like Ronaldo getting busy in the box with the volume of attacks Juventus are mounting.
