Ahead of their match against Paris Saint-Germain, Atalanta BC central defender Rafael Tolói spoke with the club’s website to discuss the squad’s mentality heading into the game against the capital club.

The 29-year-old mentions how their squad is ecstatic to be in the UEFA Champions League quarterfinals and among the best eight clubs in Europe, but it’s not enough for them. La Dea is hoping their form since the restart of Serie A will follow them into their matchup against Les Parisiens as they don’t want their Cinderella run to come to an end. 

“To be in the quarter-finals of the Champions League is a fantastic thing,” Tolói said. “We are happy to play a game of this level with a very strong opponent. We have prepared well for this shock. The fans are always by our side, we know we make them happy and we want to do well for them too. Being among the 8 best in Europe is the result of a fantastic job, done with seriousness by everyone. After a league with a record number of points and goals,  we are ready to play the Champions League starting with this great game, as we always have.”
