Morata: BVB one of the best

Alvaro Morata has warned Juventus that their trip to Borussia Dortmund in the Champions League last-16 second leg will be their toughest test yet.

The Bianconeri will take a 2-1 lead to Signal-Iduna Park next month thanks to goals from Carlos Tevez and the Spanish striker, the latter of whom has experience of playing at the home of the Bundesliga giants in each of the last two seasons with Real Madrid.

“Whenever you win, it's a good result,” the 22-year-old told Canal+.

“An away goal is worth a lot, but Dortmund will go all out to win too [in the second leg].

“I think their position in the Bundesliga doesn’t reflect the quality of their team.

“They’ve showed that they’re strong in Europe, have reached a final [in 2013] and made life very difficult [for Real Madrid] in the semi-finals.

“[Giorgio Chiellini’s slip] was bad luck, that’s football but we hope to be strong and play well in our next game. We’re going to give everything.

“[Playing at Signal-Iduna Park] will be very difficult because their stadium is one of the toughest in Europe and the world.”
