Di Maria: A phenomenon; honour to play with, says Juve midfielder Locatelli

Juventus midfielder Manuel Locatelli has warned teammates not to relax after their Europa League win against SC Freiburg.

Juve won the first-leg of the round of 16 tie on Thursday.

Locatelli said: “We are only 1-0 up, today was only the first half, we must play a mature game there [in Freiburg].

“The 1-0 may be enough, but we have to go there and play a great game. Ángel [Di María] is a phenomenon, he’s in another category, I think he’s really a champion.

“For us it’s an honour to have him with us in training and in the game, we have to be thankful that he is here.”
