Confidence in Haaland
“For us it is very important. We never doubt his goal scoring ability, because it’s something he was born with. He is fit. But I want to highlight the team: we changed our game style a bit, now it’s three behind and, as always, the group’s adaptation has been spectacular. We are in the semifinals again and not many can say that. It has been thanks to the effort, but we want to end it with a great last month. Tomorrow’s game will be incredible”.
Final 3 minutes of last year’s semi-finals
“Football is sometimes like that. You do 180 brilliant minutes… and it’s not enough. Because you lose everything in 5. We didn’t manage those last minutes well and we’ve learned from it. But it is the past; I don’t want to talk about the past, now we are different. New year, new people… and desire to fight again”. “I can talk about my club. Philosophy pushes us to be better every year, to maintain ambition, hunger. Because when you win, you win and you win… sometimes you feel something too big and it confuses you. So we push ourselves as if we were a small team, with that mentality. And we’re doing well.”
