Today the London "Arsenal" team faces a hellish evening in Madrid.

Last week the English side built a three-goal advantage against the "Real" club, but Mikel Arteta's charges will have to work hard to withstand the Spanish storm and reach the UEFA Champions League semifinals.

Before the match, the "Gunners" strategist said:

"We respect the "Real" team, but we are not afraid of them. What can I say about comebacks? I understand that it is part of their history, and the Spaniards have earned the right to talk about such scenarios.

Meanwhile, our thoughts are quite different. We want to be better than our opponents in the most important aspects of the game.

A historic opportunity lies before us, as we have never won this tournament before."

The match between "Real" and "Arsenal" will start at 22:00.
