Bayern Munich head coach Thomas Tuchel has shared his expectations from the first Champions League semi-final match against Real Madrid.
"Carlo Ancelotti is a legend. He is a very humble but outstanding coach and he simply cannot be overestimated. We are playing against Real Madrid, a legendary team. We will have a meeting today to prepare for what we will face.
These two matches are like finals. I will prepare for them like finals. So many things can happen. We will give our best to win this match. We need the absolute best atmosphere and maximum support to get through the stages when we have to be patient. We need to work with the spectators to create an atmosphere that will give us a slight advantage.
Rodrigo scores crucial goals and Vinicius Júnior likes to break through on the dribble on the right and has a great finishing touch. Jude Bellingham is an outstanding player who has added amazingly. Anyone who plays for Real Madrid is under pressure. A lot is expected of them. We will try to find the right solutions," Tuchel is quoted as saying by UEFA's official website.
