Juanfran: “No one can win us in ambition and desire”
Juanfran Torres highlighted at the press conference that there are no favourites in the final, and that the team’s and the fans’ desire to win the first European Cup is enormous.
The Atlético defence wanted to make it clear to the media that "There are no favourites, everything is very even" when facing the Champions League final. He also pointed out that they are going to Lisbon "With the same humility they would have before any game" and that "it’s a 50-50 final".
The attention, concentration, and details will define the fixture
For Juanfran, the determining factor for his team will be to keep going on as usual, being a team. "Our key is standing strong as a team, competing as a team, doing what we’ve done in all the finals and major games". At the same time, they emphasize that this being a final, "the attention, concentration and details are the keys that would define the match".
The player from Valencia does not believe that Real Madrid’s desire to achieve the tenth is an advantage. "For the Atleti fans and for us, winning our first European Cup competes with their desire for the tenth. In ambition and desire, no one can win us', he claimed.
