IT'S ALL OVER! Dormund's nightmare is over and Juventus' European dreams live on...
89'
This is a worry for Juventus! They are through now and the last thing they need is to suffer an injury to one of their starters, with Andrea Pirlo already out and Paul Pogba forced off in the first half. Bonucci is the latest player to go down, clutching his shoulder after a hard fall. He is helped off and for Juventus' sake, you have to hope it is nothing serious.
87'
STAT ATTACK: Juventus have lost five of their last seven Champions League matches away from home (W1, D1). They have been held without a goal in four of those matches, while only keeping a clean sheet in their lone 2-0 victory over Malmo... this match will be quite a confidence booster for them as they get set for the quarter-finals.
85'
It is another black mark on what has been a largely dissapointing season for the Black and Yellows. Their European journey comes to an end this evening and there's no knowing exactly when they'll be back with their league form suffering as well. It is a sad end to a wonderful era of football in Dortmund - but you can bet they'll be back on this stage soon enough.
83'
You can see it in the body language of the Dortmund players that they have given up. They accept the reality of the situation, but it is hard to feel sorry for them. They were the architects of their own demise, being out-played and out-coached from the first minute.
81'
S. Pepe enters the game and replaces C. Tevez.
Carlos Tevez is subbed off to a tremendous ovation from the travelling fans, and he deserves every second of this applause. The Argentine has been brilliant tonight, and could have had a hat-trick had it not been for an unselfish play to set up Morata.
79'
C. Tevez has scored a goal for Juventus! Assist by R. Pereyra.
IT'S TEVEZ'S NIGHT IN GERMANY! 3-0 JUVENTUS! The striker is having a field day for the visitors as he gets on the end of yet another scintillating counter attack to put Juventus out of sight with a tidy finish past Weidenfeller.
78'
A. Matri enters the game and replaces Álvaro Morata.
Free header! Dortmund have sent crosses in all night, and finally they find a good one as Ramos is teed up in the centre, but he can't beat Buffon with his header.
76'
Dortmund are keeping the ball pinned in the Juventus half, but are not nearly threatening enough. It has been a walk in the park for Buffon in goal tonight and even if he's made to work in the last 15 minutes, it's far too late.
74'
STAT ATTACK: Juventus have won all three of their matches over the Black and Yellows in Dortmund, in September of 1995 in the Champions League and in both 1993 and 1995 in the UEFA Cup semi-finals and final respectively.
Minute
Description
73'
M. Reus gets yellow.
72'
The air has been sucked out of the Signal Iduna Park with the home side going out surely now. It would take four goals from Dortmund to go through now, and with one goal looking elusive, four would take a minor miracle.
70'
Álvaro Morata has scored a goal for Juventus! Assist by C. Tevez.
THE QUARTER-FINALS BECKON FOR THE BIANCONERI! Dortmund are finally made to pay for their disappointing play. A clever little dink forward from Marchisio plays Tevez behind the defence, timing his run to perfection. The Argentine unselfishly slides the ball across for Morata who taps it into the empty net. Game over now, surely!
68'
DEFLECTED WIDE! Good advantage is played by the referee after Blaszczykowski is tripped outside the area. Play continues and Gundogan drives a shot at goal, but it takes a slight deflection and trickles just wide of the far post!
66'
SHOT ON TARGET! Kevin Kampl tries to slip a ball through for Subotic, but it is broken up. It comes right back to him and he drives a shot through at goal that Buffon is able to collect. It wasn't the most threatening shot, but it's certainly an improvement from the hosts.
64'
Jurgen Klopp has played the last two cards in his hand. It's now or never for Dortmund and their substitutions reflect that. Sven Bender and Henrikh Mkhitaryan make way, with Jakub Blaszczykowski and Adrian Ramos on to replace them. Two strikers and three attack-minded midfielders on now for the hosts to try and claw their way back into this tie.
63'
J. Błaszczykowski enters the game and replaces H. Mkhitaryan.
A. Ramos enters the game and replaces S. Bender.
62'
Who is going to be the hero for Dortmund? Juventus are refusing to budge, defending this lead admirably, preventing the hosts from getting through on goal for so much as a chance. It will take something special from the hosts to find a breakthrough and they are in desperate need of a hero to make that happen.
60'
Dortmund have been largely unimpressive in possession and far too negative in their build-up. They are being made to pay now as Juventus start to take the game over and assert their authority on the match. Time is running out for BVB and you have to wonder when, or if, they will start to turn it on.
58'
TREMENDOUS AGAIN FROM WEIDENFELLER! Dortmund are the team who need two goals, but it is Juventus who are posing the threat in this second half. Pereyra again makes a good darting run through the centre and slips Morata through on goal, in virtually an identical move that produced their chance just moments ago. Morata tries to go far post this time, but Weidenfeller sticks a foot out to make another crucial save.
56'
Another chance is wasted by the hosts following a free kick. Reus lifts the ball in towards Hummels at the far post, and he wins the header, but Juventus keep a good line and the Dortmund defender is flagged offside.
54'
STAT ATTACK: Juventus have won all three of their cup ties in club history in which they won the first leg 2-1. In addition, they have won 31 of 39 ties in Uefa competitions after recording a victory in the first leg.
52'
Successive corners for Juventus are dealt with by the Dortmund defence but they aren't able to get back up the pitch and attack. Their build-up play has been seriously lacking pace, which is very much unlike them. Where is the intent? Where is the desire? It has been far too straightforward for Juventus, more so than it was for them in the first leg in Turin.
50'
WHAT AN IMPORTANT SAVE! Pereyra slips Morata through on goal after a penetrating counter, but the striker is denied by Weidenfeller who makes himself big to keep it out. That is a massive save, as a second Juventus goal would have effectively ended the tie.
48'
Dortmund have started this second half confidently, but it is much of the same from them in possession. The crowd is growing in anticipation and you get the sense that the roof will be blown off this place if they can find an equalizer. They have to take it one goal at a time.
46'
O. Kirch enters the game and replaces M. Schmelzer.
Juventus get the second half underway and there has been one change at the break, with Marcel Schmelzer making way for Oliver Kirch. It is an interesting change from Jurgen Klopp, though the defender should provide a bit more of a threat going forward.
45'
There will be just one minute of stoppage time added onto the end of this first half.
43'
Dortmund continue to pass it around in attack, but they have to do so patiently with a black and white wall of Juventus defenders in front of them. It is going to take something special for them to turn this around. They could use as little as a real scoring chance right now, something to give them a bit of hope and belief going into the break.
41'
The pace has fizzled out yet again as we creep closer to half time. Dortmund still need two goals to force extra time and at the moment it doesn't appear likely. They are managing some good spells of possession, but go quiet for far too often as they fail to keep the pressure on Juventus. They are lacking a bit of desire and inventiveness in attack and something has to change within their team if they are to have any hope of reaching the quarter-finals.
39'
STAT ATTACK: Dortmund have failed to score just once in their last 20 Champions League matches at the Signal Iduna Park, in a 1-0 defeat at the hands of Arsenal in last season's group stage.
37'
Poor effort! It's a rare touch in this first half for Aubameyang, who has been largely anonymous. He gets onto the ball from 25 yards out, with options to either side, but tries to take the chance himself and scuffs a shot well wide of the far post. He has to work harder to get himself involved in attack. Dortmund need the good Aubameyang tonight, not the invisible one.
35'
Subotic mistimes a header as Juventus scramble another cross clear and Tevez pounces on the mistake with a chance to break. Bender shows great work ethic to track back and help Hummels out, however, dispossessing the striker and bringing the attack to an end. Dortmund have to be careful not to fall two goals behind, which would effectively end the tie.
33'
Dortmund are starting to penetrate much more in possession but they are still lacking a good final ball. They have found plenty of openings along the flanks, but Buffon has yet to be tested, making a few straightforward catches as crosses are played into the area.
31'
The referee has his hands full now as tensions start to rise with players lunging into some hard tackles in defence. Another free kick is awarded to Dortmund after a good move down the right, and the delivery from Reus is superb, but Subotic can't get enough of it and Vidal ushers it behind for a corner.
29'
It is a real shame for Pogba who was having a good match up until this point. The defensive-minded substitution from Allegri is to be expected, with Dortmund needing two goals, but it also brings about a formation change it would seem. Barzagli will likely join Chiellini and Bonucci in a back three, with Lichtsteiner and Evra acting as wing-backs in a 5-3-2.
27'
A. Barzagli enters the game and replaces P. Pogba.
Pogba shows good pace and strength to bulldoze his way through midfield, fending off the advances of Sokratis before the Dortmund right-back eventually throws him to ground with a hard shoulder-check. Play carries on and Juventus win a corner, but Pogba goes to ground in some real pain and clutches his hamstring as he makes his way off the pitch. That will be the end of his night as centre-half Andrea Barzagli comes on to replace him.
25'
STAT ATTACK: Dortmund had not allowed a goal since their first leg encounter with Juventus in Turin. They came into the match having not conceded in 408 minutes of play across all competitions.
23'
Still no caution! Vidal is getting a bit physical here, which is a big part of his game, but he has to be careful or he could pick up a suspension. He takes down Reus now on the left and the crowd urges the referee to take action, but after another lengthy talking to, he escapes with a second warning.
21'
The referee delays the free kick from being taken as he has a word with both Vidal and Schmelzer. The Chilean escapes without a yellow card and that is big for him as it would leave him suspended for their next Champions League match, if there is one. Finally the set piece is taken, but Reus opt to lift it into the centre instead of going for goal and Juventus deal with is quite easily.
19'
Here's a chance! Great work in midfield from Mkhitaryan who strips Marchisio in midfield and starts Schmelzer forward. The left-back is toppled over by Vidal, presenting Dortmund with a free kick in a very dangerous area...
17'
Dortmund need to show more of a desire to get forward and find a way back into this tie. The crowd is still rowdy as ever, urging the players forward. They patiently pass it around in the attacking half, but it is far too relaxed from the hosts, who are lacking inventiveness and persistence for the time being.
15'
Wonderful strike! Lichtsteiner is inspired by the Tevez goal, apparently, and opts to have a go for goal from close to 40 yards out. He gets plenty behind it and forces a smart save from Weidenfeller who takes no chances, punching it behind for a corner.
13'
Both teams are moving through midfield with real authority, but once into the final third, creativity has been lacking. There are very few openings being afforded by either side at the back and lines of communication in attack seem to be hazy.
11'
We have entered a bit of a cagey period, which will be welcomed by Juventus. The visitors are getting plenty of support at the back from their midfielders and a turnover allows them to break. Morata streaks forward with options, but Hummels comes across and does brilliantly to slide in and dispossess.
9'
STAT ATTACK: Juventus have an impressive record against German opposition in two-legged cup ties. They have played 15, winning 12. Their most recent clash came against Bayern Munich in the 2012/13 Champions League quarter-finals, but they bowed out to the tune of a 4-0 aggregate scoreline.
7'
Jugen Klopp's side have been through plenty of adversity this season and in recent years. They certainly are not a team to back-down when the going gets tough and they won't be doing so here either. They enjoy a good spell of possession in the attacking third and win the first corner of the match through Mkhitaryan.
5'
For neutrals, that goal will certainly do a lot to help intesity level and pace going forward. Dortmund have to score two goals now to turn this around, so they will not be lacking numbers in attack, while Juventus should have plenty of space to exploit on the counter.
3'
C. Tevez has scored a goal for Juventus! Assist by P. Evra.
ABSOLUTELY STUNNING! JUVENTUS SNATCH THE LEAD EMPHATICALLY THROUGH CARLOS TEVEZ! The striker takes a seemingly harmless pass from 25 yards out, stops and looks up at goal. He unleashes a thunderbolt into the near top corner with Weidenfeller late to react, and that is an absolutely massive goal for the Bianconeri!
1'
And we're off! Dortmund in yellow and black, attacking right to left. Juventus in black and white. This has all the makings of a classic, so let's get on with it!
Hello and welcome to Germany, as the Champions League round of 16 comes to a conclusion this evening! The Signal Iduna Park is our venue tonight, as Borussia Dortmund look to book their place in the quarter-finals by overcoming a 2-1 defeat at the hands of Juventus in Turin. I am Alex Moretto and I will be your in-game host, guiding you through the match LIVE as it happens!
Dortmund will not qualify for next season's Champions League through the Bundesliga, barring a minor miracle to close out the year. In fact, Jurgen Klopp's side likely will not be participating in Europe at all next season, putting that much more of an emphasis on making a deep run in the competition this time around. It has been an erratic year for Die Borussen, but an all-important away goal in the first leg in Turin has provided them with a real shot to keep their Champions League hopes alive.
Juventus have been largely disappointing in Europe since their return to dominance in Italy and another early exit would certainly bring about discontent among the supporters, who expect their team to make a deep run in the competition. They are looking to reach the quarter-finals of the Champions League for just the second time since 2006, last reaching that phase in 2012/13 after disposing of Celtic in the round of 16. The league title is all but secured at this point, however, so Massimiliano Allegri and his squad can focus all their efforts on eliminating a hungry and dangerous Dortmund side.
The hosts have made a few changes to their team following their first leg defeat. Lukasz Piszczek is forced to miss out with an ankle injury, while Nuri Sahin is also kept out as he tries to get back to full fitness. In their absence, Sokratis slides over to play right-back, with Neven Subotic in to take his place, while Sven Bender slots in for the injured midfielder. Meanwhile, Kevin Kampl makes his Champions League debut, pushing Ciro Immobile to the bench and Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang to striker.
The Bianconeri will have to make do without Andrea Pirlo, who played in the first leg in Turin, but misses out tonight as a result of a calf injury. Claudio Marchisio drops into a deeper role to replace him with Roberto Pereyra getting the start in his absence. That is the lone change made by Massimiliano Allegri from the first leg, though Patrice Evra, Arturo Vidal, Paul Pogba and Alvaro Morata were all rested on the weekend.
The players make their way onto the pitch and the inspirational Champions League anthem echoes through the loud-speaker. The atmosphere inside the Signal Iduna Park is brilliant as usual, which just adds to the excitement surrounding this highly-anticipated clash. It is set up brilliantly following the first leg, and it has the feeling of a special night. Just moments away now from kick-off!
HALF TIME: DORTMUND 0-1 JUVENTUS. Carlos Tevez's strike separates the two teams at the break and has the Bianconeri on course for the quarter-finals. It has been largely unimpressive from the hosts through 45 minutes, and Klopp has his work cut out for him at the break to make a few adjustments and make a late push in the second half.
FULL-TIME: DORTMUND 0-3 JUVENTUS. A master-class performance from Carlos Tevez sees the Bianconeri through to the quarter-finals, adding yet another black mark on BVB's nightmarish season. It was written in the stars for the visitors, who took the lead after just three minutes and never looked back.
I am Alex Moretto and I would like to thank you all for joining me here today. Good bye!
