KIFI

TURIN, Italy (AP) — Europa League champion Villarreal scored three second-half goals in a 3-0 win at Juventus to advance to the Champions League quarterfinals. Substitute Gerard Moreno converted a penalty, then Pau Torres was left unmarked to redirect in a corner before Arnaut Danjuma added another penalty. Villarreal advanced 4-1 on aggregate as two-time winner Juventus was eliminated at home in the round of 16 for the third consecutive season. It’s the first time in 13 years that Villarreal has reached the last eight. Defending champion Chelsea advanced after a 2-1 win at Lille. The draw for the quarterfinals will be held Friday.
