Palladino “Carichi per la Champions, we want to play it”

DORTMUND (GERMANY) (ITALPRESS) – “The fans are the beautiful part of football. Tomorrow we will play in a fascinating, very hot stadium: fans, even those opponents, always give you stimuli, like the Champions, of course. Let’s face a great team: we have so much enthusiasm.” So the technician of the Atalanta, Raffaele Palladino, at Sky Sport, on the eve of the playoffs of the Champions League, on the move, against Borussia Dortmund. “De Ketelaere e Raspadori absent? Sorry, they’re important to us. They give us quality and unpredictability. But we are a family, we are a group and I am sure that those who replace them will do well. Scamacca, however, is fine: he fully recovered from the small accident he accused before the match against Cremonese”, added Palladino.

“We have great desire to continue to grow. We want to be competitive and we want to compare with Borussia. They are doing well, they are seconds in the Bundesliga; we want to play it. We know that the challenge will be played with round-trips. We must be good at the various moments of the two games,” said the technician of the Atalanta.

“We are proud to be here. It is beautiful to live these emotions. We have been working with my staff for two days to prepare this race. The boys are very focused, too. I try to convey to my players the right charge, but also a bit of lightness: we have to enjoy this double challenge”, concluded Palladino.
