Roma coach Garcia saw red in Juventus defeat

AS Roma coach Rudi Garcia was sent off during defeat to Juventus.

Roma were furious over the manner of their 3-2 reverse.

"That is not important," shrugged Garcia when asked about his red card for the violin gesture in a 3-2 defeat.

"I prefer to talk about the game, as there were so many incidents, but we lost through our own fault as we didn't score two great chances and conceded on two set plays," he told Sky Sport Italia.

"It's just a shame that in Turin they make the penalty area slightly larger... I really think it was possible to do better, not just in terms of the result, but the performance. Both these teams can play much better football."

He added: "Technology would be able to give you measurements to the centimetre, in or out, as we are in the 21st Century now. When you saw Maicon from above in the stands, you could tell the ball was outside the box."
