Polish referee Szymon Marciniak will be the referee at the Wembley Stadium when Tottenham Hotspur will host Juventus in the Round of 16 second leg of the Champions League on Wednesday evening.

The first leg turned out to arguably be one of the most entertaining games of the round. Juventus did score twice early in the game to double their lead through a Gonzalo Higuain brace, but a Harry Kane goal before half-time handed Spurs a life-line. A delightful Christian Eriksen free-kick in the second half meant that Mauricio Pochettino’s men will head back to Wembley with a big advantage over their Italian rivals.
