“We all understand what it will be like during the match. We all have to be together in this match, both the fans and the team. There must be maximum energy in the arena.
You have to think of this match as the most important one, because after that we have two more important battles: with Monaco and the top clash with Real Madrid.
Milan is now in the best form, but the point is simple – this is how the schedule was made, and the Italians were able to break the same “Monaco” and “Fenerbahce”, “Zalgiris” strategist A. Trinchieri testified before the confrontation.
