No stop for Ciudad Real

Ciudad Real try to keep up a good level of concentration and not to feel euphoric about the result achieved in the first game.

No stop for Ciudad Real

The difference of seven goals from the first game is a good basis, but they are not a definitive advantage. Hamburg are really difficult opponents for most of the teams in the Color Line Arena.

Talant Dujshebaev is trying to convince his players to stay focused to reach the Champions League final. A lack of concentration could be a real danger for the Spanish club in Hamburg. The German team will surely fight to the last second of the semi-finals.

Roberto García Parrondo, Spanish international right winger, believes that his team need to keep the fighting spirit in Hamburg:

“I’m sure that we could achieve a greater difference. However, we are really glad with this result. We must be aware that we cannot relax in Germany.”

Parrondo was very surprised by the result of Barcelona in Kiel:

“It is a great difference, but European competitions make me think that Barcelona could be able to recover”.

The Croatian right back, Petar Metlicic, will return in Hamburg after his wrist injury. Kallmann and Urios will have a rest this week to recover perfectly from their small injuries. They will both be ready for the game in Hamburg.
