...ABOUT THE MATCH

We need an incredible atmosphere. It was key against Arsenal and now, even more so. We need the fans, too, in difficult match situations. This match is like a final. We are going to find the lineup as if it were for a final. Yes we know that some players are not going to be able to play the entire match, but we are not going to think that there is a second leg left. I want think about just one game to win and arrive in the best conditions. It's a great game. It's an incredible semi-final. I don't know if it's the best. But as a Bayern fan, this duel is something incredible.

..TO THE FINALS

Our goal is to get to Wembley. We defeated Arsenal and it gave us a lot of confidence. And playing against Real Madrid is a very important step. We are eager to compete. We are only focused on tomorrow's game. We played with Chelsea, PSG and Dortmund. Benzema was key and had a lot of influence. Now Jude Bellingham is the one who has that figure. The system has changed. With Vinicius and Kroos as dominant players. In general, the task of playing against Real Madrid is to bring players to the attack but also to be ready in defense. When you are missing one behind you must always achieve balance.

...TEAM UPDATE

We must have tactics, but also freedom. We cannot only think about tactics. The players are the drivers of the car, which is the team. The players need that freedom. The small details are what are going to decide this match. Maybe a little luck helps us, but we can't depend on it. I'm not going to talk about Hoeness. With Upamecano, De Light, Laimer we are analyzing his follow-up. We have to wait. We'll see after training

...REAL MADRID

Bellingham's development is incredible. When you play for such a big club you play for this. He handles it well, although the expectations are enormous. We have to find solutions. Carlo shows calm and experience. It is important to focus on ourselves. We have to have discipline to find solutions. We have experience, the players and I. Carlo is a legend. We are going to prepare well, although we have one less day in preparation. We are all excited to face this match.

...ABOUT THE MATCH

The past remains with good memories, but tomorrow is another story. We trust. We must keep in mind that we are playing against an opponent that has tools and individualities. We are happy to be here, few thought we would be here. We have achieved it with commitment and work. We have trust but we also have a lot of respect. They haven't had a fantastic season in the Bundesliga, but they are coming off a great series against Arsenal. They have been two spectacular games. You have to take into account quality and history. Every time I make a lineup I do unfair things, but it is my role as a coach. Militao fulfilled his role perfectly and is missing minutes. He can play, yes. But I can't think if I'm unfair or not. Unfortunately it is my role.

...OUR HISTORY

This club is never undervalued, especially in the Champions League. Everyone knows what we are capable of. We do not have the most important role. The coach never has it. There are two types of coaches. Those who do nothing and those who do a lot of harm. I try to be in the first group. The game belongs to the players.

...MENDY AND TCHOUAMENI

I can tell you about Mendy. He had a small overload after playing against Barça, but he has recovered very well and is ready for tomorrow's game. I don't like to talk about other things regarding rivals. It is true that Tchouameni has not lost a game, but against City in the second leg he did not play and we are here. Tomorrow he's going to play. Where, I don't know.
