Juventus coach after losing to Barcelona: The team is still under construction
Andrea Pirlo, coach of the Italian soccer team, Juventus, said that his team lost a match "to a team that knows how to play" such as Barcelona, and that his team is still "under construction."
Juventus lost 2-0 yesterday to Barcelona in the second round of the European Champions League.
"It was a difficult match against a team that knows how to play, and advanced early in the result. We are a team under construction. The loss will help us develop," Pirlo said in statements published by the "Europa Press" news agency.
Pirlo does not want to make excuses, but he hopes his team will be completed quickly.
He said: "We hope that there will be more players soon," especially Cristiano Ronaldo, who missed the match due to his continued infection with the Corona virus.
Pirlo explained that his team made mistakes, and said, "We were not well positioned on the field, sometimes Kolosovsky and Dybala were very close. We have to be faster in moving the ball. We have young players, we need more matches. We made the wrong decision to face Barcelona head-on." ".
