Juventus boss Massimiliano Allegri rates tonight’s Champions League semifinal second-leg as the biggest game of his career.
Juve face the game with a 2-1 aggregate lead.
“It’s not my first time at the Bernabeu, as I was here in my first year with Milan,” the Coach told Sky Sport Italia.
“This is the most important match of my career, as it doesn’t happen every day to be in a Champions League semi-final. Now we are here and we believe that we can get to Berlin.” Allegri also said that there is no reason why his side cannot cause a major upset tonight.
“I expect a beautiful game,” Allegri said.
“As I said last week it’s very unlikely for the game to finish goalless. I hope so, but I very much doubt it because Real Madrid is a team that scores many goals. “I already cancelled what happened last week, tomorrow (tonight) is a knockout game, we cannot expect to control the game from start to finish because it’s impossible to do something like that away against Real Madrid.
“Motivation-wise, these are games that need no motivation speech. What we have to be good at is to go out there and be serene. Contrary to the Monaco game, where we could play for a 0-0 scoreline, we will have to score tomorrow (today).
“We have to play a good technical game in the offensive department, perfect maybe. We’re 95 minutes away from Berlin so I see no reason not to believe [that we can reach the final]. It is an important objective.”
