On his memories of the match vs Real Madrid in the Champions League Final (2018)

“I remember the last Champions League final against Real Madrid as if it were yesterday.

“I feel very excited to face them again in the final against Real Madrid. We want to do well this time. When I left the field in the last final, it was sad for me, but I had to accept it and move on. That’s why we won the Champions League a year later.”
