Del Bosque Positive, But Not Underestimating Juve Threat

Real Madrid coach Vicente Del Bosque was in positive mood ahead of the Champions League semi final with Juventus, but he knows that Juventus are a force to be reckoned with.

"Taking into account all their qualities, we'd be making a bad mistake to underestimate Juventus," he said.

"We shouldn't forget that they've already eliminated Deportivo Coruna and Barcelona from this competition and they're currently one of the four best teams in Europe."

"It's crucial that we go at Juventus with the same mentality as we did against Manchester United and it's fundamental that we take a victory to Turin."

"We've played more good football than bad so far this season and that will see us go into the game with our confidence high."

"In a long season, results like the one against Mallorca can happen. The public have had more reason to smile this season than to complain."
