Juanfran Torres and Diego Godin confirm the vision and desire of the whole team to win the Cup final
The defenders spoke to the press after completing training in Majadahonda Sports City.
Uruguay's Diego Godin summed up how is the squad is: "The team is good, at a good time, really enthusiastic and looking forward to the final."
"In the game we go in to it with the same chances as the opponent. It's a final. It is clear that Real Madrid are favourites, but before a game the chances are equal for both sides. We will go out to win the game" the centre back said emphatically.
Godin once again reiterated that the opposition does not bother him nor history and statistics surrounding the derbies. "The only thing that worries me is winning. Not looking back. We are in good form and looking forward and hope to win this final. We’re really enthusiasm and excited".
The Uruguayan spoke of the key to this cup final "games are very intense. We must give everything. It's the details that can make a difference. You have to be at full concentration," he concluded.
Juanfran Torres accompanied Godin at the meeting with the media as the two representatives of the red and white squad in the press room of the Ciudad Deportiva. The man Alicante said that "the coach is preparing the game as any finals week before we played. I am convinced that he will guide us in the right direction and the way he prepared the games I am convinced that we will have a great game and win."
Regarding how Juanfran see’s the final, he said that "in the other finals we’ve been in recently, the previous days you imagine a tight final, where it will decided by small details. And in previous finals we’ve won by a large scoreline and hopefully we can repeat that. That's a dream final, to win and suffer as little as possible.”
For us it is the most important game of the season
The right-back Atletico made it clear that "for them it will be the biggest game of the season because for us it is. If either side lose, we will be annoyed and if we win, we will be the happiest team in Spain. Winning a title either the League, the Cup or the Champions League, is very important for a club. For us it is the most important game of the season."
He spoke of the union in the Atleti dressing room, not only for the final because he said that "we are always together. We have a great atmosphere and a very good group. Since I came to the club there have been few gaps in dressing room. El Cholo has managed to unite us all and we know that the secret to winning things is and to achieve important goals."
About Falcao and his role in the important moments he stated that "we are waiting to see if the Tiger scores three goals on Friday."
Regarding the fact that the team are going to spend a few days Los Angeles de San Rafael, he said "it is important that we spend time together and get psyched for the final. It is a special game and we can not be at home and just turn up on Friday morning, concentrate and play Friday night. In previous finals we have traveled outside of Spain and we have been two days before so we’ll do the same now. It is time to be together and prepare well to win the game, which is what we want to do."
"The small details are the most important in a game. We have very good past form because in previous finals we have won and were perfect. Hopefully the team is perfect on Friday and we win," said Juanfran.
Finally, he noted that "we attack well and score a lot of goals. Radamel is one example and we have other very good players up top. We've done well with our goals during the season. This Atletico Madrid is very definite, we know how we play and how we should do things. That helps us to do great things. I am convinced that on Friday we will have everything clear and that everything will be okay."
