Real Madrid will play to win in Champions League second leg | The ...

The Galacticos have a 3-0 advantage in the Champions League quarter-final second leg but will face a hostile crowd in Istanbul as they bid to make their 24th semi-final appearance.

"They are a team who play well on the counter-attack, and they have very fast players up front who are always looking for depth. We have to keep calm in defence, keep everything tight and go for them.

"We mustn't think about the 3-0, although it is clear that this is a knockout match and the 3-0 is there, but I see scoring a goal or looking for goals as the key.

Meanwhile, Galatasaray hitman Didier Drogba, who won the Champions League title with Chelsea is looking forward to the return game.

Drogba said: "I have a special relationship with the Champions League — it is a trophy I had to wait a long time to touch.

"It is a real joy for me to be back in the Champions League, and especially to hear its anthem at the beginning of each game.

"I have found a club that is ambitious, with a great project. They at some point want to win the Champions League. It is a great choice for me.

"I wanted to rediscover the passion I experienced in Marseille. I want to be part of this adventure, part of this challenge. This is something very exciting."
