The Portuguese mentor has expressed his assertion ahead of Real Madrid’s Champions League clash against CSKA Moscow and claimed that Los Blancos have nothing to fear.
Mourinho was beaming with confidence as he spoke to the press regarding his side’s second-leg of the pre-quarterfinal match against CSKA Moscow. The match will take place at the Santiago Bernabeu.
The ‘Special One’ maintained that even though many consider it a tough fixture for Madrid, his side will be going into the match with all guns blazing.
He stated that Los Blancos will be full of confidence as they take on a very determined CSKA.
Last month, Real Madrid visited the Luzhniki Stadium in Moscow to play the first leg of the fixture.
To the dismay of the Madrid faithful, the visitors had to settle for a draw after a goal by Moscow in the dying moments of the game.
Although the Spanish giants had to play in tough conditions, http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Cristiano-Ronaldo-c9629 provided his side with the advantage as he scored the first goal of the match.
It seemed as if the night would end in favour of Los Merengues, but the host team equalized in the dying moments of the game, finishing the match with one goal apiece.
Since Moscow were able to level the proceedings of the match, it gives them a mental edge along with the fact that they have never been beaten on Spanish soil.
However, Mourinho has insisted that his side are not fearful of their opponents and will make sure that the qualification to the next round of the Champions League is guaranteed, as they play at home.
While addressing a press conference, the former http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Inter-c39567 Milan boss quoted:
"Our confidence is high and we fear nothing and no one. It's always difficult in the Champions League because you face the best of each country, but we're not obsessed about anything and have no inferiority complexes of any sort."
"Football is treacherous in its nature and always has room for surprises. The best team doesn't always win and the 1-1 score of the first leg gives us every reason to think the match will be difficult.”
The highly anticipated match will take place on Wednesday and Real Madrid are considered favourites to qualify for the next round of the European competition.
