Here’s What The Coach Has To Say
Carlo Ancelotti, Real Madrid coach: “We have the quality to turn this tie around, along with the commitment, the experience and the fans. The resources are there, and now it’s time to bring our best. Mentally we’re doing very well, and we have to have good control of the game.
“The Bernabéu has magic, and everyone knows it’s a special atmosphere. Tomorrow we need a bit of everything: quality and a complete performance, both physically and collectively. Not one of these things can go wrong.”
Mikel Arteta, Arsenal coach: “The emotional aspect [of the game] is very significant. I have a lot of reassurance from what the team has done all season, in positive contexts and in difficult contexts.
“We are going to enjoy playing any kind of game. The mindset is to be brave, to be dominant and have the conviction that we can be better than them and win the game.”
