Gerardo Martino: 'We deserved to win'

Barcelona coach Gerardo Martino says that his side deserved to beat AC Milan after their 1-1 draw in the Champions League on Tuesday evening.

Barcelona coach Gerardo Martino felt as though his side did enough to beat AC Milan this evening.

The European giants played out a 1-1 draw at San Siro in the Champions League, and Martino thought that his team were deserving of more than just the point that they took away from Italy.

"We dropped two points and deserved to win this game against Milan," Martino told Sky Sport Italia.

"We created more scoring opportunities and that is why we would've deserved the victory. We made a mistake leaving the initiative to the Rossoneri when Milan scored their goal. We paid for that error.

"Lionel Messi played well, as did the rest of the team. He was in the thick of the action. It is not easy to play with so many opponents in their own half. We had the chances to score and it's just a shame we didn't make the most of them."

The draw keeps Barca at the top of Group H.
