Live Bar February 14 news At 4:00 a.m. Beijing time on February 16, the first leg of the Champions League quarterfinals, Manchester City will challenge Portugal Sport away.

About Manchester City

Rodri said: "I think we are a better team now because we are more experienced than ever. We have lacked that experience before, and most of the players have not played in the semi-finals or finals in the Champions League. Now that we've gone through these stages, we're feeling that way. Football wins and losses are not always related to the quality of the game. ”

"We're all human beings and when we're in these situations, it's stressful, but we have to be calm. Now that we have enough experience, as a whole, I think we will be more united. ”

About the Champions League

"Champions League games are always the same. Our current opponents are Portugal Sport, they are a very tough team and we want us to have a good result in the first leg and then sit back and play the second leg with home advantage. ”

"The game is open and in the Champions League, anything can happen. I like to focus on myself, on what we've developed this season, on the progress we've made since the start of the season. ”

"We know it's the most important part of the second half of the season and we've got a clear picture of how the team has been for the last few years. We can't perform well 75% of the season and then go all the way downhill in the second half. We need to stay 100% in shape until the end of the season and we're focused on accomplishing that goal. ”
