"Messi has long been an idol of global football, and that's never going to change. He's such a great player, you know he won't make it easy on the court. We won't adapt to our opponents, but let them adapt to us. We've been playing like this for the past year, and tomorrow won't be different.

"We need to be brave to possess the ball, make the most of the space, just like we've always done. The opponent is a strong team, experienced and full of stars, and we know they will test us. "

Joeu Neves

"We prepare the same for every game, but facing players like Messi will always give you extra motivation and motivation. We focus on our team and our style. Everyone knows how outstanding Messi is. If he is given space, he will become very dangerous. ”

"We are calm and focused on ourselves. Tomorrow is just one game, Messi is just another player. We will stick to our game plan and go there to win. Of course, it is an honor to be able to play a player like him, but it won't change our preparation for the game. ”

"We just need to focus on ourselves and how we play, of course, they are a good team, but we will stick to our game plan and fight hard. I think as a team we are stronger, but in the knockout stage, either side can be eliminated if they relax their guard. ”
