Juventus in their Champions League final defeat to
Barcelona, but Luis Suarez and Neymar saw them
off
Alvaro Morata is ruing that Juventus may have
blown their once-in-a-generation chance at
winning a European and domestic treble by losing
Saturday's Champions League final to Barcelona .
Ivan Rakitic set the tone in the Catalans' favour
with an early goal, but Morata pounced on a
rebound 10 minutes into the second half to bring
the score back level in Berlin.
However, Luis Suarez swiftly restored the lead for
Luis Enrique's men before Neymar scored in
stoppage time to trigger treble celebrations for
Barca following May's Liga and Copa del Rey wins.
It left Juve having to settle for a double with their
success in Serie A and the Coppa Italia, and
Morata admits that his side getting another chance
to win a treble in the near future is extremely
unlikely.
"We had a chance to win but we didn't do it," he
told Sky Sport . "I don't think that such a treble
opportunity will happen again but we must work
next season and we can come back fighting.
"The board are working to build an even stronger
team for 2015-16, we are proud to represent this
team."
Morata signed up for the Turin club last summer
from Real Madrid for €20 million and has scored
14 goals.
Juve have already secured the signing of Palermo
sensation Paulo Dybala and are rumoured to be
interested Chelsea attacker Oscar as well as out-
of-contract Real Madrid midfielder Sami Khedira.
