Juventus defender Federico Gatti slammed the match officials after their 4-3 Champions League defeat at Benfica.

The result saw Juve bundled out of the competition.

Benfica were awarded a penalty kick for a Juan Cuadrado handball inside the box to make it 2-1 on the night.

“We are upset because we had scored the equaliser and then, in my opinion, they were given an absurd penalty kick," Gatti told SportMediaset.

“[Juan] Cuadrado was standing still, of course, games change with these incidents. We reacted well, now we must focus on Lecce and then PSG because we want to go to Europa League at all costs."

He added, “We must go through this as a team, we have a difficult game against Lecce away, we play in three days, the next two games are crucial."
