Jose Mourinho spoke to the press ahead of tomorrow’s first leg Champions League semi-final match against Borussia Dortmund. The Real boss and Mesut Özil answered questions from the press in Signal Iduna Park’s press room, and the coach explained his feelings ahead of his team’s important match: “Klopp is a fantastic coach; I think he’s genuine and honest. After listening to his statements I can’t expect anything other than a Borussia with an attacking style that’s going to go all out.
We’re playing against a team that has its own style of play, it won’t be easy. We’ll face the game calmly, just like Galatasaray and United, trying to win”. Real Madrid seeks a positive score in Germany in order to face the second leg in the Santiago Bernabeu with things in their favour. Mourinho gave his starting eleven for tomorrow’s match: “Diego Lopez, Ramos, Varane, Pepe, Coentrão, Khedira, Alonso, Özil, Higuain, Cristiano Ronaldo and hopefully Di Maria, who had a good but emotionally tough day because his daughter was born, will play tomorrow”.
