The Yellows No.13 says that playing in European competition is always exciting: \u201cIt\u2019s a great tournament. The team is really keen on getting to the next round. We have a great squad and we can approach the game sure of ourselves.\u201d The shotstopper recognises that a triumph on Portuguese soil would be a massive morale boost ahead of upcoming matches: \u201cIt\u2019s a match where we can fight to defend our shirt with pride. It\u2019s an opportunity to play a great match and be confident ahead of the future.
