On Thursday, Italian giants Juventus smashed the nets of the French Nantes with 3 goals in the second round of both teams' last-16 fixture at the Europa League.

Angel Di Maria scored the first hat-trick of his Juventus career to help his side to knock out the ambitious French team.

In addition, Di Maria became the first player who scored a hat-trick for the Old Lady team at the host's venue since 2000 in a European tournament.  

2 out of three goals were scored in the first half, and one of them was plenty, while the final came in 78. 

Egyptian star Mostafa Mohamed participated in the final quarter of the game after he substituted Moses Simon.

The previous tie ended with a 1-1 draw in Turin.
