SARRI: "WE MISSED THE AGGRESSION"

Juventus' coach Maurizio Sarri spoke in his post-match press conference following the 1-0 loss against Lyon, first leg of the Champions League Round of 16.

It is difficult to explain why the circulation of the ball was so mild in the first half: in this way the teams attack and you suffer. We missed the aggression, and then we had an unfortunate episode on the occasion of the goal, given that we were temporarily in ten. During the game we getting heated because, in addition to moving the ball slowly; we often were out of position. In the second half, we grew and moved better, regaining possession in the opposition’s half of the pitch, which allowed us to close them in their area. In training we move much better and with much more speed.
