Carlos Tevez scored twice and set up another as Juventus crushed Borussia Dortmund 3-0 on Wednesday to advance to the Champions League quarterfinals for only the second time since 2006 with a 5-1 aggregate victory.
.
The Argentine forward drilled in from distance after three minutes and then set up Alvaro Moratafor their second goal 20 minutes from time. Tevez added his second late in the game with the Germans well beaten.
.
Serie A leaders Juventus, unbeaten in their last 12 matches away from home in all competitions, were never threatened by toothless Dortmund who had high hopes of overturning their first-leg defeat in Turin.
.
Dortmund failed to have a shot on target for more than an hour and only some smart second-half saves by keeper Roman Weidenfeller prevented a heavier defeat.
.
Juve were unimpressed by the pulsating atmosphere created by 70 000 Dortmund fans inside the Westfalenstadion, silencing the raucous home crowd early on when Tevez, who scored in the first leg, was left with far too much space 25 metres out and unleashed an unstoppable shot into the top corner.
.
Chasing the game, the hosts were afforded plenty of possession but the Italians shut down the flanks as Dortmund ran out of ideas.
.
Weidenfeller twice denied Morata from point blank range early in the second half but Juventus, who enjoy a runaway 14-point lead at the top of Serie A, scored again when Tevez raced clear and cut back for the Spanish striker to tap home.
.
Tevez then completed his superb performance by scoring from just inside the box on 79 minutes.
