It's Wrestlemania II! Juve up to their old tricks during royal rumble part two in Turin



After their first-leg farce, Juventus were up to their wrestling antics again during Wednesday night's Champions League clash against Celtic in Turin, with the referee once again failing to crack down on them.



The away side endured similar treatment to what they received at Celtic Park with Juventus players grappling and holding in moves more commonly seen in the wrestling ring during the few corners Celtic had.

There was hope that after the controversy of the first leg tonight's officials would be stricter on the antics described by Lennon as 'wrestling' tactics.

'Any player can stand anywhere he likes in the box. He’s not affecting the goalkeeper, he’s not touching the goalkeeper, he’s not preventing him from getting the ball', said the Celtic boss before the game.

So he’s talking nonsense. 'We were getting hauled back and the referee is looking straight at it. 'Are the rules different in Spain and Italy to what they are in Britain?

Hands off: Lennon hoped the referee in tonight's second leg would deal with the sort of grappling antics that made Mick McManus (right) famous

Striker Georgios Samaras had echoed Lennon's words, saying he hoped the referee in the second leg would deal with it better.

'It wasn't fair, I think everybody saw that,' said Samaras, who missed the first leg. 'It is how they defend set-pieces, like most Italian teams.

'Hopefully, the referee will have his eyes more open tomorrow and see clearly what's going on and it can be a fair game.'
