"It's a huge match for us. We want to keep control of the game and also keep possession of the ball. But we have to be careful," Atletico coach, Diego Simeone said this week. "If we're in possession, Leverkusen will apply a lot of pressure to get the ball back. We're in very good shape and are really enthusiastic. But we have to be very focused - this is always very important for our performance. If we do that, we get a good result. Leverkusen have a good coach and good players, they're a well-balanced team."
