JUVENTUS captain Gianluigi Buffon admitted his side could have no complaints after its 0-2 defeat at Bayern Munich in Tuesday's Champions League quarterfinal, first leg.
"We were facing a great team, we were very confident, but we have nothing to complain about, because Bayern clearly deserved this victory and they also had other chances to score more during the game," admitted the veteran goalkeeper.
Bayern takes a significant lead to Turin for next Wednesday's return leg after an early goal from Austria's David Alaba and a second-half strike by German Thomas Mueller at the Allianz Arena put the Bavarians in pole position.
The Italians will have to produce a top performance in Turin if they are to maintain that record as Bayern dominated, but victory came at a price with midfielder Toni Kroos expected to miss eight weeks with a groin injury.
"It doesn't look so good for Toni, we're waiting for more results of tests, he's an important player for us," Bayern coach Jupp Heynckes said.
Bayern needed just 26 seconds to take the lead when Alaba launched a left-footed rocket from 35 meters out which gave Buffon no chance.
