AC Milan's head coach, Paulo Fonseca, has spoken to Sky Sport Italia ahead of the match against Real Madrid.
On how he plans to stop Vinicius, the Portuguese head coach said:
"I think we know what we’ve prepared. We've prepared for support with Musah and, at many times, having a five-man line to help Emerson."
On Milan’s offensive play on the left, Fonseca said:
"I expect to see Rafa and Theo in great shape and making a difference. Defending this way creates more opportunities for Rafa to have greater freedom. It’s a tough match but also a good one for playing, managing the game with the ball. I’m positive."
On what he told the team in the last few hours and on the impact of playing at the Bernabeu:
"I told them that we are lucky to have this moment in our lives: they must take advantage of the game. I told them we’re facing the best team in the world, and we must be defensively strict. But it’s also a moment for the players to show their value."
On how he expects Real Madrid to play, Fonseca said:
"I expect a very offensive Real Madrid. I expect more offensive phases, and we know that Mbappé and Vinicius are key in many individual situations. Playing at home, they’ll be offensive."
