Samuel Mbangula registered late to give Juventus a slender advantage over PSV in their Champions League knockout phase play-off.
The Italian side, who finished 20th during the group phase, made a dominant start as Nicolas Gonzalez, Kenan Yildiz and Paris St-Germain loanee Randal Kolo Muani all had opportunities.
Weston McKennie broke the deadlock in the 34th minute with a stunning strike from the edge of the area after PSV failed to clear their lines.
Mbangula was introduced as a half-time substitute for Yildiz and almost had an immediate impact when his volley was cleared off the line by Ryan Flamingo.
