Suarez: 'Florenzi was lucky'

By Football Italia staff

Luis Suarez called Alessandro Florenzi’s incredible Roma goal “a slice of luck” after Barcelona were held 1-1.

“We know how Italian sides are. They sit back and it’s hard to break them down,” the Uruguayan striker told reporters.

“We controlled possession and had lots of chances, but they scored from distance, which was a slice of luck.”

Florenzi’s wonder-goal came from 50 metres, spotting Marc-Andre Ter Stegen off his line.

Elsewhere in Group E, Bayer Leverkusen swept BATE Borisov aside 4-1.
