Marchisio: Shakhtar could beat us

3.10.2012

Juventus midfielder Claudio Marchisio expressed satisfaction after a 1:1 draw at home against Shakhtar Donetsk in the Champions League that his team has not lost.

Ukrainian team led the game in Turin and had more chances as the team of Mircea Luchesku achieved mastery of the ball 58 percent versus only 42% for Italian champions.

In the last minutes of the match Shakhtar could walk away with the victory, but the dangerous impacts of Willy stopped in the crossbar over Gigi Buffon.

"Giving it what happened at the end of the game, this is certainly a point gained rather than two lost," said Marchisio.

"We played against a strong team that was very dangerous in attack, but we also had our opportunities from which we did not take advantage."

"It is difficult to maintain the same rhythm when you play in three days. We should spread our energy a little better, "said the Italian international after Juventus failed to win for the 8th time in tournaments.
