The Brazilian star believes that Spartak gave an initial warning to the rest of the group members in the UEFA Champions League after their terrific performance against http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/FC-Barcelona-c39078
Spartak Moscow suffered their first defeat in the UEFA Champions League, as http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Barcelona-c38604 edged a close fought game 3-2 in the group stage match at Camp Nou on Tuesday. The Spartachi reached the group stages after defeating Fenerbahce
in the play-off round.
Though Spartak were on the losing end, the Moscow-based club terrorized the Catalans defence and proved to be the better side on the pitch until the 70th minute of the fixture.
Lionel Messi’s second-half brace denied the Myaso to gain a strong foothold in the European championship after helping his side to maintain their decent record in the group stages.
In aftermath of the outcome, Romulo sees no reason to be depressed about their opening defeat in the European tournament, saying that the Moscow-based club can take a lot of positives from their latest defeat.
The Brazilian national played the entire 90 minutes and helped his side in retaining one-goal lead after scoring a superb goal against the Spanish giants in the 59 minute.
However, the former http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Vasco-da-Gama-c40872 player credited the entire team upon their wonderful European performance, saying that he does care about scoring goals until his team is in the winning side.
“I am very glad to score a goal on my birthday. But we are disappointment with the result because it was easy to see on the scoreboard after the final whistle. I have played for Brazil at the highest level, and played some big
matches in the Brazilian championship.”
“Probably, we lacked European exposure, which was the cutting edge to keep the opponent at bay until the end of the meeting. But now we need to think about the upcoming match in the Russian Premier League. This match proved that
we can fight against top teams.” The Copa do http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Brazil-c2858 winner was quoted as saying.
Romulo went on to urge his side to win their next match against Rostov to forget about their European defeat.
