Manchester United will face Atlético Madrid away in the second round of the Champions League group stage. Ahead of the match, Manchester United defender Yoro spoke to the club's official media, discussing his expectations for the Champions League clash, the team's mindset after drawing with Tottenham in the last round, and his recent experiences with the French national team.

How excited are you for this important Champions League match against a strong opponent like Atlético Madrid?

Yes, it will be a fantastic match, but certainly not an easy one. The atmosphere will be intense. We have to be ready because we know it won't be easy.

When you chose to become a footballer and join Manchester United, was it for Champions League nights like this?

Yes, absolutely. Everyone aspires to play in such matches, especially in the Champions League. Honestly, this is why I play football, and it's why you join Manchester United – to participate in these kinds of games. So I'm really looking forward to tomorrow's match.

I know the team was disappointed not to beat Tottenham at the weekend. How eager are you all now to make amends against Atlético Madrid and put in a strong performance?

Yes, of course, we were all very frustrated, but we must move forward and not dwell on Saturday's game. We have another match tomorrow, and this is our chance to move past the previous game and fight for a win. So the team is prepared for tomorrow's match.

For you personally, the past few weeks have also been wonderful. You made your debut for the French national team, received praise from Zidane, and started in Saturday's match. How do you feel about your current form?

Yes, I feel like I'm currently on an upward trajectory. I will do my best to bring everything I can to help us win. So I hope we can win tomorrow, and I hope the team can start winning more games and perform better in the league.
