“I say thank you to Mourinho and my teammates. Today we did everything to win and we had a few opportunities to score but we didn’t. Luckily in the second half we improved some aspects and in the end we found the goal.”

Mkhitaryan also weighed in on the level of Serie A being higher than ever before.

“Expectations are always high and we also always want to be as high as possible. From the start of the campaign the goal was to be in the top 4 and that’s still what we want to do, the season is still long and we have to understand that some teams will lose points,” the playmaker said.

“We have to play better and win games, over the last month we lost a lot of points and that wasn’t what we wanted. We have to stay focused and win the next games.”
