About this match
- It is obvious that it is very difficult to play against Manchester City at this stadium, and given their strength, the game itself is already difficult, let alone with the ten players facing each other.
Regarding De Bruyne being substituted
- Of course he wants to play this game, but he understands the coach's decision, we must respect the coach's choice, whether it is De Bruyne or anyone else. He is a very, very good player, he wants to play, but the final decision is in the hands of the coach.
