First home setback for the Nerazzurri who were overcome by Sampdoria, Robin Gosens comments on this match: “We deserved more”.

Robin Gosens, what went wrong today?

“The fact that we conceded three goals. Three goals weigh a lot, obviously. I think, for how the match went, we deserved more than the 1-3 score. It’s a shame, as I think we were in control of the game and we deserved to win”.

Everything gets more difficult when you concede a goal on their first scoring chance.

“Obviously. I think we know that we’re able to score two or three goals, but when you concede so many goals it gets more complicated to win games. We must work on this, as we’re always juicy offensively. But in the end we must avoid conceding goals”. 

How much did the Champions League match and Tuesday’s match against Ajax weigh on this?

“Playing in the Champions League is always so satisfying. I think those games get ready on their own, as there’s always great desire to play those games. We must never forget the league, as the league is where you punch your Champions League ticket, that’s why you need wins, obviously”.

Robin, the Champions League is up next on Tuesday, you host Ajax at home, at the Gewiss Stadium.

“It’s the first time we’re playing the Champions League at home. It’s a great satisfaction. It’s a pity that fans are not allowed to attend, but I’m sure that they’re with us even if far away”.
