Arteta Urges Arsenal to Stay Confident Ahead of Crucial Real Madrid Clash

Posted : 16 April 2025

Arsenal manager Mikel Arteta has spent the past three days instilling belief and resilience in his squad as they prepare for their Champions League second-leg clash against Real Madrid. Holding a 3-0 lead from the first leg, the Gunners face a formidable challenge at the Santiago Bernabeu, a ground known for Madrid’s dramatic comebacks.

 

Arteta made it clear that his focus has been on maintaining a confident and composed mindset, deliberately steering his players away from thoughts of previous Madrid heroics.

 

While acknowledging Real Madrid’s rich history and remarkable European achievements, Arteta emphasized respect rather than fear.

 

He praised the Spanish side’s legacy and called it a source of inspiration, but stressed that Arsenal must be mentally prepared to manage any scenario that arises during the game.

 

The manager highlighted the importance of embracing the occasion and trusting in their ability to rise to the challenge, reminding his team that success comes from belief and composure.

 

Goalkeeper David Raya echoed his coach’s sentiments, declaring that Arsenal has traveled to Spain not just to defend their lead, but to make a statement.

 

 Determined to carve out a new chapter for the club, Raya said the team is focused on creating history rather than becoming another chapter in Madrid’s legendary comebacks. Arteta confirmed that Thomas Partey and Ben White are available for the match, while Jorginho is sidelined due to injury.
