oach Edin Terzić is optimistic about his team’s chances in the Champions League final against Real Madrid, despite being the clear underdog.
“Anything is possible,” Terzic told reporters in his pre-match conference as his team prepares to play Real Madrid on Saturday evening at Wembley.
This season, Madrid has only lost twice in 54 games across all competitions. Along the way, they defeated Barcelona 4-1 to win the Spanish Super Cup and easily won La Liga by a margin of 10 points.
But in order to advance to what coach Carlo Ancelotti called the “biggest game of any season” in the Champions League, they had to work extremely hard once more.

Ancelotti’s team survived a volley of attacks from the reigning champions Manchester City to win their quarterfinal match on penalties. In the final four, they overcame Bayern Munich thanks to another historic late comeback at the Santiago Bernabeu.
“We never stop believing, no matter how the circumstances are,” said Luka Modric, who along with Nacho, Dani Carvajal and Toni Kroos, in the final match of his club career, can win the European Cup for a record-equalling sixth time as a player.
“We always believe, keep believing, keep pushing, fighting until the end. In the end, we manage to find a way to beat opponents.
“Many people say there is luck, but when it happens so many times, I think it’s not just luck.”
