After the game, Lo Celso praised his team's performance and claimed that being eliminated from the Champions League was very painful for them.

He told reporters:

"The first impression is one of pain, and of sadness because we wanted to play that final. We had a very good first half, where we cut off all the circuits for them, we pressed, we created situations, we went 2-0 up.

"The support of the fans who pushed us from the first minute gave us a huge boost.

"In the second half, it was difficult for us to keep up with them, they began to find spaces and there they found the goals.

"It was a bit difficult for us to keep up with the rhythm of the first half,"

"In the second half, in ten minutes the match escaped us, but I am proud of my team-mates because reaching the semis is no small thing and even more so against such a high-class opponent."
