Fabregas - We proved we can cope with Milan's qualities

"Definitely we can go there and do it," he said. "We are a positive side, we are young but, having seen what we have seen tonight, we can cope with their pace, their experience and we can create chances.


"If we can score a goal I think we have a good opportunity to go through. It's very difficult. They have a lot of experience, they know how to play. They defend very well, they are very intelligent and they never play around. If they have to kick it out, they will. It's very difficult but we have to be happy with the way we played tonight.


"We were maybe a little bit [nervous in the final third] but I think overall we played a very good game against a good team.


"We can't forget that we didn't play against an average team. We played against a top side like Milan and even then we played well. We had more opportunities, we played better and had more possession. We did everything right. Unfortunately sometimes in football the difference is you don't put the ball into the back of the net and we didn't do that."
