The Colombian Radamel Falcao acknowledges the difficulty of the challenge in Moscow, but said he will fight to the last minute: "We know how the game is balanced, but we have come to play and this game is not over. We will fight until we have possibilities."

The Atletico striker does not think the cold is an issue that the team can not overcome: "When one enters the field the desire to win is greater than the circumstances that can arise in a football game. I’ve been to Moscow twice previously with Porto and played without any problems. We focus only on what happens in the field".

Falcao spoke of the opponent's tactical approach. "They showed an approach at the Calderon, they will not give many spaces so we will try to find the tools to break the defensive approach that they served them very well in Madrid".

"Rubin is very compact and well balanced, has control in all lines and also are good on the counterattack. We have been thinking about what we can do to break them down", said the Colombian.
