It was an unforgettable night – a night to relive through the words of Massiliano Allegri’s players.
CRISTIANO RONALDO
“It was always going to be a special night: and it was, not only for the goals, but for the team. This is the mentality of champions, this is the journey to follow: we enjoyed a magical night. Atletico were a difficult team, but we were strong too. We will see what will happen…”
JOAO CANCELO
“This victory was important for the team. In the week, we worked well and we deserved this success. Ronaldo? He’s fantastic. Now we will think about the league, we want to win against Genoa.”
LEONARDO BONUCCI
“It’s a great night for the Juventus family, and we responded on the field. In the first leg, we were missing something, but today, we gave everything, and Allianz Stadium was our 12th man in an incredible night. What was said in recent weeks touched us and we pulled out something more. But now we want to win in Genoa, to continue our journey and prepare a great month of April.”
BLAISE MATUIDI
“It was an extraordinary night for everyone - a special night from the first minute. We are very happy, and now we are moving ahead with our work. We want to continue to grow in order to progress further in the Champions League. We have a strong team, and Cristiano is the best player in the world.”
FEDERICO BERNARDESCHI
“The team has played an extraordinary match from all points of view, especially in terms of awareness. We knew we could do it, we always believed. We were united, and every day the desire to believe in it (a comeback) grew.”
