"It’s important for RSCA to play in Europe"

The day before the clash with PAOK, Vítor Bruno and Enric Llansana spoke to the media. The midfielder is looking forward to a hot evening in Thessaloniki. "I’m mainly expecting a great atmosphere and an exciting match. We’re feeling confident, but in football you can never get ahead of yourself. We just keep working hard in training and in every game. I feel that everyone is ready for the match against PAOK."

The head coach echoed his midfielder’s confidence but remained cautious. "Every match is different and every opponent approaches the game in a different way. We have to adapt to that and, above all, not get carried away by the positive results against Hammarby. We know PAOK will be another tough challenge, but we have to stay true to our principles and to the foundations we’ve already built."

The full press conference is available now on Mauve TV.
