“Champions League matches are always going to be tough and we always have to have the same mentality as today: score a lot of goals and win. This victory will give us a lot of confidence to face the challenges ahead of us.”
On his connection with Bellingham
“It's very easy to play with him. He makes everything easier. His second assist was beautiful and I'm delighted to be playing with him.”
Vini Jr., MVP of the clash
“We all play for the team and it doesn't matter who the MVP is. He deserved it and he scored two goals too. We have to keep helping the team and keep winning.”
Praise for Ancelotti
“I'll always defend the coach. Sometimes we go through difficult moments, but we work hard to avoid them. This season we've slipped up a bit in games that we can't afford to slip up in.”
