- Are you worried about the future of your team in the Champions League after the draw?
- No, Shakhtar are a strong team. The opening 30 minutes saw us being afraid of Shakhtar, but then we started to play well and spent the rest of the match with them on equal footing.
- Do the fans deserve such a ‘strong’ Juventus, and how would you respond to their songs?
- It was hard to play in front of the fans that didn’t support us. The atmosphere in the stadium was strange.
- Does the draw reflect the flow of the game? - Perhaps, yes; we had more chances in the first half, and Shakhtar had more opportunities in the closing stages of the game. So the draw is a fair result.
- Did Juventus look like they did because the team were tired? Were the changes in the squad – compared to the match against Chelsea – also connected with this factor? - Yes, of course, we had five matches in 16 days. But Juventus are playing well, and the changes were not prompted by players’ fatigue; they had to do with tactics.
