Shakhtar Donetsk captain Darijo Srna has claimed that Pep Guardiola’s side are the best in the world, after the Catalans thrashed the Ukrainians 5-1 at the Camp Nou in the UEFA Champions League on Wednesday. He said that the current http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Barcelona-c38604 team was the
best in football history and added that they deserved to win.
Shakhtar Donetsk lost 5-1 to the Catalans in the first-leg of their quarter-final tie at the Camp Nou. Xavi Hernandez, http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Gerard-c14664 Pique were amongst the goals for the home side whereas Yaroslav Rakitskiy scored the
only goal for the visitors.
Srna said that the defeat was similar to the loss in the Group stages against Arsenal in London, where they lost by the same score line in October. He said that his side played better than they did in London, but the opposition was much better this time.
The Croatian international added that his side did not deserve to lose in the manner they did after their brilliant run in the competition so far, but Barcelona played brilliantly. Shakhtar topped Group H ahead of Arsenal with 15 points and reached the quarter-finals
for the first time, but their progress has been dented after the humiliating defeat to the Spanish giants.
The Croatian told reporters, “There were some things in common with the game, but tonight we played better than in London. The team we played against were also quite different. We did not deserve such a loss this evening. Before the game, I said Barcelona
are the best team in football history, and they have now confirmed it."
The 28-year old expressed his disappointment over the loss and said that the team would regain their confidence ahead of the second leg in http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Ukraine-c3032. He admitted that qualification for the last four would be a very difficult task but the Miners would try their
best to get a good result.
The Shaktar captain concluded, “It is a pity given all our powers, but we still have a return match to play. We will gather our thoughts, show character and try to beat them at the Donbass Arena. It will be a difficult task.”
