Real Madrid legend Toni Kroos has shared his opinion on how his former club can beat Arsenal in the Champions League quarter-final second-leg tie at the Santiago Bernabéu.
Real Madrid will host Arsenal in the return leg of their Champions League last-eight clash at home in Spain on Wednesday.
Los Blancos go into the fixture following a 3–0 defeat to the Premier League’s North London club in the first leg last Tuesday at the Emirates Stadium.
Speaking about the encounter, the former Germany midfielder said Carlo Ancelotti's side will have to press non-stop against the Gunners from the first quarter of an hour to stand any chance of beating the visitors.
“After 2-0, it looked like all was lost. From my experience, when Real Madrid are losing in a game, there is always a phase in which you have the feeling that a goal was important, but they seemed to be saying, ‘Please don’t let the fourth one come'.
“The team has to give its best. And the Bernabeu crowd will be there. We have to press non-stop from the first quarter of an hour,” Kroos was quoted by SPORT as saying.
The kick-off time for the match between Real Madrid and Arsenal is 8 pm.
