“I saw a super dynamic and aggressive Barça, in addition to the quality we know. With a Messi who I had never seen run quite as much,” Capello said.
The manager diagnosed his former side, saying that “Juventus have not looked for Federico Chiesa, despite the fact that he was frequently open. All the plays have been concentrated on Paulo Dybala’s flank.”
