"It's also very important for us to do well in the first leg because it's our home game in front of our supporters. At the end of the day, it's a tie with two legs, so we have to be smart and we need to know how to play in a certain way to give ourselves a chance going into the second leg and ultimately progress to the final," the defender added.
