“I’m so excited because when you are in football as a player or a manager you want to be involved in this type of game and a competition like the Champions League, playing against teams like Bayern Munich.

This is a club that every season prepares to try to win the Champions League, their history says that. For sure, they are one of the contenders.”

For Bayern Munich coach, Kovac, the game will be a top European clash with two teams aiming at the trophy:

“Two top teams face off at a great stadium. The pressure is a bit higher for Tottenham.”It’ll be a big night on the European stage.
