What’s been said?
Nottingham Forest boss Vitor Pereira: “If we want to put our names in the history of this club we need to get to the final and win it. Of course Brian Clough is an inspiration for us. This week I went into the city and saw a big statue of him. I’m not thinking about a statue, but we can imagine what he did for this city.”
Aston Villa manager Unai Emery: “How we are alive in this moment in this competition and how we’ve been performing is fantastic. But now in the semi-final it’s 50-50 for both teams and very important for both teams. Nottingham Forest have history in Europe winning the Champions League and we have our history as well but not recently. Recently we want both teams to keep doing something important in Europe.”
