“Higuain? Nobody spoke with him, it was an important match and we tried to play our game.

“He knows us and he scored through something he knows we work on in training. I am sorry that he scored.

“We played well, it is always difficult to play in this stadium. Now we need to concentrate on the coming matches.

“There is more anger than anything, we know our level of play was higher than theirs but Juve made the most of their shots.”
