"We have seen and analysed a lot of their games. They are doing very well and are an experienced team with strong defensive and offensive systems.

“The tie is open, it is a great opportunity and we are happy to play Malaga.

“Manuel Pellegrini is an excellent Coach. With young players like Isco and [Mario] Götze we do not think about how old they are. Isco is an excellent player, they are both very good.
