Figo: "Madrid know how to play big games"



Luis Figo will be one of the main figures in today´s game. Two years ago he had at his feet the possibility of levelling the qualifying round but Buffon stopped his penalty shot. Today he would shoot it again. “Why not? If I didn´t have enough confidence I wouldn´t shoot it but I don´t think that will happen. I hope there will be many penalties in our favour. If I don´t have confidence, I´m sure there will be many other players who will want to shoot”. The Portuguese player believes that the key is to scorea goal and he justifies it by saying that Real Madrid don´t know how to play any other way. “We must score. It´s crucial to score in this kind of qualifying round. Real Madrid don´t know how to play any other way. A defensive play is not good for anybody. Those who do so, ends up losing. Due to our characteristics, we surely won´t do that. I don´t have a crystal ball to see the future and I don´t know if it will be the key, but I hope so”.
