Real Madrid will be looking for heroics to reach the Champions League semi-finals. With any other team, 3-0 is definitive, but not for a team accustomed to comebacks and great Champions League nights.
Joselu, who will experience the match against Arsenal from another continent, knows this well. In Doha, he spoke to ‘ Relevo’ hours before the kick-off of the second leg against the Gunners.
"I think that if there is one team in the world that can make the comeback, it is Real Madrid. It's clear that it's a complicated moment, a pretty tough result, but, well, there's a team and a stadium that can do it. Madrid have all the capacity and all the options to do it, so hopefully they'll score an early goal and from then on, it's all up to the Bernabeu", said the former Real Madrid striker.
For Joselu, the key is "the people, the stadium, the way we press. It's fundamental". "It's also important to score an early goal. Then we've seen it many times before, the Bernabeu atmosphere will handle the rest", he added.
