Man of the match. How do you explain what happened? “One word: Real Madrid. This team, this club, is capable of anything. We continue to believe until the end. Just before 1-1, Mendy saves her on the line. With 1-1 you see that everyone is possible and with 2-1 they are dead”.

In 89′ it didn’t seem like they could come back…: “In front of goal we were not good today. We missed passes, Vini missed a chance. That goal, that moment, the fans all together… With the 1-1 they knew that anything could happen”.

Does it have more merit to reach the final because of the rivals they have had?: “We have eliminated very big teams that have spent a lot of money to try to win a Champions League. The path we’ve had… We know that at home we can do everything and we’re looking forward to getting back to a final”.

Do you want to win your first Champions League more than other players who have already won it?: “I do not think so. When you get to a final each one has a huge desire. Because when you win four you want five to be a legend. When Madrid goes to the finals, it’s to win them”.
