Despite the unfavourable starting position, Robin Gosens enjoys the chance of a surprise at Real Madrid with Atalanta Bergamo. One thing drives the international.
Despite the unfavourable starting position Robin Gosens weathers with Atalanta Bergamo the chance of a surprise with the royals. “Our big motivation is that we show the true Atalanta face in the second leg,” said the football national player in the kicker. After 0-1 in the first leg, the Italians need a brilliant performance in the eighth-final second leg of the Champions League at Real Madrid on Tuesday.
Bergamo, who has won the last five away games in the top class, enters the next duel with confidence with Toni Kroos and the record champion. “I don’t want to say they were afraid, but already a little respect for the way we normally perform,” Gosens said with regard to the first leg. Even Kroos had said that he was happy that it did not “come to the normal Atalanta game”.
For the Madrilene, the goal is to retain the opportunity to win a title this season by entering the quarter-finals. After all, coach Zinedine Zidane’s team in the Spanish league is six points behind Atletico Madrid and has only a minimal chance of winning the championship. In addition, the third quarter-final-off is to be prevented one after the other.
The contract poker team led by Captain Sergio Ramos is currently causing unrest in Madrid. The defensive player, who, like Eden Hazard, made his comeback last weekend after a prolonged injury break, has so far failed to reach an agreement with the club on an extension of his contract, which expires in the summer. In real terms, Ramos is said to have recently set an ultimatum by 31 March.
