José Mourinho, Tottenham manager

“The [Heung-Min Son injury] situation couldn’t be worse in terms of options. There is nothing that you can do. We are going to play with the players that we have available. The players are going to give everything, which is what they are doing. There were periods when I was worried about not having attacking options on the bench; now it’s not having attacking options on the pitch.”

Julian Nagelsmann, Leipzig coach

“I get a bit nervous before every game. But this isn’t the most important game in the club’s history. Of course, we want to reach the quarter-finals, but first we need to negotiate the away leg. I have a huge amount of respect for José Mourinho. He’s won lots of titles and been a massive influence on European football.”
