Sporting star warns Arsenal: we're not afraid at all | OneFootball

Luis Suárez previewed the clash between Sporting and Arsenal, the first leg of the Champions League quarter-finals, showing confidence and determination to face a top-level opponent. The Colombian forward explained the group’s mindset.

“We are so confident that we are afraid of nothing. We respect every opponent, but we fear none of them. It is a challenge we are facing with total confidence, and we want to show our worth at Alvalade,” the player said in an interview with UEFA.

Recalling the historic comeback against Bodo/Glimt, Luis Suárez stressed the importance of that moment for the team: “The match against Bodo/Glimt was epic. I think that’s the word. We finished happy because, at the end of the day, we showed that what had been seen in Bodo was not the real Sporting.”

On the responsibility of replacing Viktor Gyokeres (who brought in new revenue for the Lions), the striker underlined: “It is the most exciting challenge of my career. I believe I am living up to it. I have the responsibility to show why they brought me here. That is what has marked me most here, because I have to deliver for a club and for supporters who place all their trust in me so that the team can continue to grow.”
