The forward was caught speeding after his influential display against Real Madrid but despite a reckless streak his sublime ability leaves him close to another final
• Semi-final first leg match report: Juventus 2-1 Real Madrid
Last week, a few hours after Juventus’s victory over Real Madrid in the first leg of their Champions League semi-final, Carlos Tevez was stopped by traffic police on the French side of the Mont Blanc tunnel, allegedly doing 120kph in a 70kph zone. His driving licence was revoked immediately. The incident seemed typical of the 31-year-old’s career: he had just played superbly as his club had produced their best European result in more than a decade and yet he ended the night in trouble with police. There is a wild, reckless streak about Tevez that seems never to go away.
Later in the week Boca Juniors played River Plate in the Copa Libertadores, which inevitably took the mind back to their meeting in the semi-final of that competition in 2004. Boca won the first leg at home 1-0 and trailed 1-0 in the second at El Monumental when, with six minutes remaining, Tevez lashed in what looked like being the winner.
