The wait for Borussia Dortmund-Milan is almost over, and AC Milan's coach Stefano Pioli has taken the time to talk to Amazon Prime Video's microphones minutes before kick-off.
Here are his words:
On Milan's mood: "There is a good feeling, but it's clear that everything will depend on how we interpret the game. We are in good shape, just like our opponents. We must face the match with conviction and confidence, but at the same time with humility."
On the team's evolution, Pioli said:
"Compared to last year, we have grown. Regarding the Champions League, until a few years ago, many of us were debutants. Now, we approach the competition with more experience that has helped us understand how to manage these competitions better. As for the preparation, I see the boys more aware, mature, and less fearful."
On Christian Pulisic, Pioli:
"Christian is a technical and intelligent player. He always makes the right choice both on the left and on the right. In the past, he played more on the left side, but now he has shown excellent qualities on the other side as well. He comes a bit more to meet and adds more depth, and this can be an advantage for us."
