Krkic was chasing the record of being the competition's youngest goal scorer, but drew a blank on the night and said at the final whistle: "It wasn't to be. It was a game where I had chances of scoring, but it just didn't happen.

"I always play with the intention to score.

"The game was attractive, because although we did not gamble anything, there was intensity, four goals, and I believe that the fans left happy."
