The Englishman expressed all his joy, after winning the trophy, to the microphones of BT Sport. “I can't explain my emotions in words. It's impossible. I said I'd played two finals for Chelsea and lost both. Losing hurt me. And what I wanted with all my heart was to win a trophy with Chelsea. Go all the way in the Champions League, face some tough teams. We reached the final and we won it. This moment is so special. We are the best team in the world and no one can take him away from us ”.

"Nothing, I don't care, because I think we are different footballers, don't we? I'm just starting my career, so the only possible comparison is this, that we're both from the nursery and we lived in Manchester, but he's on the team not that good. I've been luckier and I've been able to play Manchester's best team. Too bad for him. "
