Juventus goalkeeper, Wojciech Szczesny, has said that the team’s 4-0 defeat to Chelsea in the Champions League on Tuesday ‘really hurt.’
He said this while describing Chelsea as the best team in Europe, adding that the Italian giants were not able to challenge the Blues.
Max Allegri men could not withstand the force of Thomas Tuchel’s men on Tuesday night, falling 4-0 in the process with goals from Trevor Chalobah, Callum Hudson-Odoi and Reece James deciding the game.
Szczesny, a former Arsenal goalkeeper, who did his best to limit the damage and produced a number of fine saves, said, “Unfortunately, tonight we saw the difference between the two teams,” he told Sky Sport Italia.
“They are the best team in Europe, the reigning champions of Europe and today we were unable to challenge them in any way. It hurts, it really hurts.
“On Saturday there’s a head-to-head with Atalanta in Serie A, it is very important, we must put this behind us and focus on that game.
“I get the sensation we have found our balance, it’s just that tonight we put in a tragic performance and were punished by four goals.
“You can lose, but I struggle to accept losing like this.”
