"To be honest, we are not interested in the record of unbeaten matches. We didn't care about it from the very beginning. It's about the game, and unfortunately we lost the final today. This is football. We said yesterday that it would be a tough game. Compliments to Atalanta.

It's a pity that it didn't work out in the final. We looked so good before this game, and the fact that we didn't manage to do what we usually do well in the final is part of the game. We have to accept it," Bulinews quoted Djaka as saying.
