If only just for the celebration of Juventus' 30th Scudeto, this match was a must see.

Two rivals that are fighting for Europa League spots with 3 matches remaining in the season. The Stade Vélodrome is always a great venue for matches big or small.

With La Liga front runners Atletico losing their match to Levante, 3 points for Real Madrid would put them right back into the title mix.

And then there's Luis Suarez crying...
