The former French superstar is aware of Pellegrini's lethal attack up front but admits he has no 'special plan' to stop the Citizen's top two threats in the lineup. During Zidane's pre-match press conference, he opened up about Manchester City's deadly strikers and what his side needs to do to reach the Champions League final.
“Aguero has all my respect and he is a key player for City, a very good player, but we will not do anything special to stop him,” he stated.
“Kun is essential, but so are City’s other players."
“De Bruyne? I am not focusing on one specific player. A very good team is coming to the Bernabeu, but we will try to progress to the final.”
The 43-year old coach continued to speak about how Los Blancos will approach this crucial match by pressuring the visitors from the very first minute, as he hopes his team can change the scoreline with their home field advantage at the Santiago Bernabeu.
“It is going to be very complex, more than the first leg because we know everything will be decided tomorrow. We are going to prepare as we always do, respecting the opponent."
“They have very good players, especially attacking players. I cannot say we are going to score two or three goals - that doesn’t exist in football. It is a totally different match, but we are ready."
“We know we are going to be under pressure from minute one to 90 or more, and the important thing is we are ready for that.”
