About the match

"I was hopeful, I felt a different vibe. We needed a match like this after the poor showing in the Champions League. I was confident because I know us, we restarted in the right way and we are happy. We had mainly prepared for Neres' deep attacks if he went one-on-one with Acerbi, and when he pulled away, the midfielders were excellent at getting in: they are very good at this and tonight we scored two very beautiful goals," writes Tmw.

About the penalty

I haven't reviewed anything yet, but I definitely went down because I felt the sliding contact from behind. On the field, I felt a contact that didn't allow me to stay on my feet. It's not a dive, it's the referee's decision that was made this way."
