"Our team is capable of winning the Champions League," said the Scottish colossus at the press conference before the fight.

"There is great excitement around us. People say that we are not as good as previous teams of United but sometimes we see the past in the dim colors, also happenes to me. The truth is that this team fights to the end, but it's great quality. The big test is tomorrow. I'll have to endure if we want to win this trophy, "said Ferguson.

United manager admitted he was very pleased to be able to rely on all his players, with the exception of Paul Scholes, who does not fly with the team to Madrid.

"Tomorrow will not be a night for 0:0. I can assure you of that. This match will justify the expectations. Both teams want to go forward. It is regrettable that we meet so early though. I wanted to face each other in the finals at "Wembley" added Ferguson.
