The young "Monaco" football star Kylian Mbappe is not intimidated by the UEFA Champions League semi-final draw and asserts that the team can compete with any club for a spot in the tournament final.
"Monaco" once again defeated Dortmund's "Borussia" in yesterday's second leg of the Champions League quarterfinals and advanced with a total score of 6-3. K. Mbappe, who scored in both matches against "Borussia," claims that "Monaco" has good chances to play in the final.
"In the semi-finals, beside 'Monaco,' there are Turin's 'Juventus' and both Madrid clubs, but K. Mbappe is not afraid of these European giants and promises to fight anyone in the semi-finals.
"What more could we ask for?" - K. Mbappe mentioned about reaching the semi-finals. "Well, maybe we could also make it to the final."
"If we hadn't believed that we could go further, I don't think we would have reached this stage. After each step, we started working even harder to reach our goal. There is room for improvement for us because there were moments today when we were very passive and had little attack, which we cannot afford.
I'm not worried about the semi-final draw. We know that we will face big clubs there, but we are not afraid of them and will fight anyone," added the rising French football star.
"Monaco" aims high this season - in the French "Ligue 1" championship, they currently hold the top position, and now they also have a chance to compete for the Champions League trophy.
The semi-final draw will take place tomorrow at 1 PM Lithuanian time.
