The head coach of Munich's "Bayern" Pep Guardiola was delighted with the match against Turin's "Juventus" and stated that these matches should have been fantastic for every football fan.
Yesterday in the UEFA Champions League, the Bavarians extended a dramatic victory in extra time with a score of 4-2 and advanced to the quarterfinals. "Juventus" led 2-0 after the first half, but "Bayern" managed to equalize in regular time and score two more goals in extra time.
"It was a great match for the fans," said P. Guardiola after the game. "We played against the finalists from last season, who have a great team and great players."
"I have to give a big compliment to my team. Winning a match when you are behind 2-0 against an Italian team is especially difficult," added the strategist.
"I want to thank the fans first and foremost. They created an incredible atmosphere and that was our motivation to move forward," said "Bayern" captain Philipp Lahm, praising the fans for their support.
