Mathieu Flamini spoke to the media after the game. Here is what he had to say:
on the defeat…
There’s a lot of frustration because I don’t think we played that bad. They were good on the counter-attack. We were expecting that but they deserved the victory. There’s a lot of disappointment on our side because we were on a good run and we played well against Galatasaray. But now this has happened so we need to rest and go back again.
on Cesc Fabregas…
Cesc had a great game. He gave a good assist and played a great game as well. He played well.
on a better result than last season…
Better than last year but we came here to do a great performance and come back with a victory. We lost the game and it wasn’t a bad game from us but we have to be more realistic to get better.
