Enrique Cerezo made a statement in the official Atlético media in which he has shown his confidence in the face of tonight's game: “It is a very complicated group and we know that we need to win to move on to the next phase. The team is very well and we are going with the idea of taking all three of us points”.
Atlético's president pointed out that he sees the players “animated” and he hopes that the defeat against Alavés will not influence the match against Milan: “They know the responsibility that this match entails. The manager is calm and hopefully all the players can join the team's game system. The stadium may have a 75 percent occupancy and this is good news. Hopefully a good match can be seen. “
Cerezo said that “all Atlético players want to play games like this. Griezmann, João Félix … everyone wants to have a great game. “Atlético have all the players except Savic to face the Italian team and for the rojiblancos scoring is very important after the draw against Porto.
