“Newcastle United” after a 20-year break returned to the UEFA Champions League, where they will face the “AC Milan” team tonight.

Before the first match, “Magpies” manager Eddie Howe said that “Newcastle” wants to return to the most prestigious European club football tournament as successfully as possible.

“We want to perform as well as possible in the Champions League and be competitive. It is very important for us to maintain our playing style and show fighting spirit in this tournament,” - E. Howe said at a press conference.

“Newcastle” manager did not underestimate the setback experienced by “AC Milan” in the city derby last weekend.

“These will be completely different matches. We can only control what is up to us. We need to manage the atmosphere that awaits us as best as possible. The start of the match will be extremely important,” - added E. Howe.
