Borussia Dortmund coach Jurgen Klopp has admitted that his side "lost to a much better team" as they exited the Champions League with defeat against Juventus.
The Italian side won 3-0 in Dortmund to record a convincing 5-1 aggregate scoreline against the Germans, and Klopp accepted that his BVB side were second best over the two legs.
Klopp told Mediaset: "If the other team is better, it's easy to accept defeat. Tonight we lost to a much better team. Juventus had the perfect start and we tried to come back, but we weren't good enough.
"If you are not strong enough, then you can't mind going out of the Champions League. We weren't strong enough in the Bundesliga either. We have other problems, there are some reasons why we don't have 60 points in the League. We have to learn how to handle situations. We're better, but not good enough yet.
"We are out, now we can concentrate on the Bundesliga. We are together, we win together, we lose together, that's not the problem. It's not our best moment, but it is life and we have to stay in the race."
Dortmund return to domestic action when they travel to Hannover on Saturday.
