Andrea Barzagli says the Bianconeri will have to keep battling to ensure their Champions League knockout stage qualification hopes remain firmly in their hands.

Three points from tonight’s Group D game would have placed Massimiliano Allegri’s men in a strong position to sew up a last 16 place with three games remaining, but an organised Borussia Monchengladbach display, coupled with a lack of cutting edge in the final third, meant just one would have to do for Juventus.

Reflecting on the encounter, the Tuscan defender said: “A win would have represented another important step towards qualification. Now we need to fight and stay alert. We struggled to create goalscoring chances and it was a tough, physical game, just as we knew it would be.”
