Champions League, Atalanta: Gian Piero Gasperini dampens enthusiasm

These are the words of Atalanta coach  Gian Piero Gasperini, on the eve of the Champions League match against Real Madrid: "To think we are superior to Real just because they are ahead in the standings would be too much. We are more cautious, è an exaggerated euphoria that we leave to the outside”.

“Undoubtedly we will play to get as much as possible. No team canò say they are favorites against Real Madrid. Ità will be an important challenge for our and their ranking, we play in our finished stadium against the mostù titled team in the world. È the crowning achievement to the extraordinary journey of all these years".

La Dea arrives at the'appointment as Serie a leaders: “È a very good moment, very rewarding streak that brought us to the top. A satisfaction for the fans, but tomorrow we should be good to forget Milan, Roma and the previous games”.

“It will be different compared to the European Super Cup on Aug. 14, where we were also counted because of open market issues, but also compared to three years ago when there was the public out for the restrictions against the pandemic. We want to show good soccer in front of our audience".
 
"If tomorrow we think that we have a good position, convinced that we can play calmly becauseé so much is not yet decisive, then è already lost. We need determination, concentration and desire, all the necessary precautions against the mostù titled team in the world".
