London, Feb 26: Juventus, beaten on penalties by AC Milan in the 2003 final, went down 1-0 at Deportivo Coruna yesterday after Albert Luque's first-half goal.
Deportivo were the only winners from the four Spanish teams left in the competition following Real Madrid's 1-1 draw at Bayern Munich on Tuesday.
They went halfway towards gaining revenge on Juve, who knocked them out of the second group phase last season, when Albert Luque capitalised on a blunder by France international defender Lilian Thuram to blast the only goal after 36 minutes.
The Spaniards deserved their lead against the shot-shy Italians and though they also dominated the second half, they failed to create many clear chances.
Lyon's slice of luck came after 18 minutes when Sociedad defender Gabriel Schurrer scored an own goal as he tried to clear from midfielder Florent Malouda.



Sociedad had not lost at home in European competition since 1975 but found it hard going against the lively French visitors who should really have scored more.



Valery Karpin hit the bar for Sociedad while Malouda hit a post late on for Lyon.
