Mikel Arteta, the manager of Arsenal, has stated what he anticipates from Atletico Madrid on Wednesday night when the two teams play in the first leg of the Champions League semi-final.
After defeating Newcastle United 1-0 in the Premier League last weekend, Arteta’s team is going to the match.
During his pre-match press conference on Tuesday, Arteta was asked what he anticipates from Atletico Madrid.
“A really tough match,” stated the Spaniard. They are a squad with a great deal of competition experience, and they deserve to be here because of what they have accomplished.
“We are aware of the match’s complexity, but I believe we have demonstrated our abilities in Europe on any field.
“We have been very consistent, and in order to come here and win the game tomorrow, we need to play with that confidence, that desire, and that will.”
