Cuadrado calls for calm after Sporting draw

Following the Bianconeri’s draw away in Lisbon, Juan Cuadrado gave his thoughts on how the Champions League game panned out for his side.

“We made a lot of mistakes – our execution wasn’t as good as it could have been,” he said.

“But we need to stay calm. The result is still positive. Now we need to go and win the next one.

“When you play lots of games, you start to feel that fatigue. But that should not be an excuse. We need to remember that we’re a strong side who can get results.”

As for the return of Mattia De Sciglio, the Colombian added: “It’s positive – he slotted back in well and put in a good performance. He just felt a bit of tiredness towards the end.”
