Sergi Roberto: Juventus’ victory was the perfect response for Barcelona


Sergi Roberto said that Barcelona’s win over Juventus on Wednesday was the perfect response after another tumultuous week at the Camp Nou.

The Catalan giants plunged into a disappointing loss to Real Madrid at the weekend and then saw President Josep Maria Bartomeu and his board resign 24 hours before the game.

Roberto was asked about his team’s performance in the wake of recent events and felt that the players had produced the perfect response on the field.

“We are very happy, especially for scoring. Having six points is important. We have only scored two goals, but it could have been many more. The important thing is to take advantage of opportunities. If we continue like this, we will end up scoring them. After the defeat against Madrid, it was important to score points. We must continue in this way.

“We want a Barça that dominates the games, that has the ball. Today was a great game, not only because of the result, but also because of the feelings.

“There is much talk about this [Bartomeu’s resignation], which is normal. But what the members want is to win games and that is what we have shown. The best answer has been today’s game. “

The victory puts Barça in great shape in Group G ahead of next week’s clash against Dynamo Kiev. Previously, Koeman’s men faced Alavés in La Liga and could use a victory after defeats in their last two league outings.
