Nottingham Forest are about to travel to Villa Park for the second leg of their Europa League semi-final, where they hold a 1-0 lead.
Before the match, the team's key defender, Nikola Milenković, issued a pep talk, demanding that the entire team be prepared and give it their all.
Despite holding a one-goal lead, Milenkovic was keenly aware that the challenge had only just begun. He pointed out that Aston Villa is a formidable team with exceptional individual talent and extensive European experience.
Facing the crucial 90-minute match ahead, Milenkovic emphasized: "Although we have the advantage, we must reset our mindset and start this game as if it were a draw. Every player must do their part for the team and make sacrifices for each other again."
“You can feel the charm of this club’s tradition and everyone’s strong desire to return to the top stage in Europe. We are on a good upward trend and must maintain the tenacious team spirit we showed in the first leg.”
More than 2,000 Nottingham Forest fans will travel to Villa Park to show their support. Milenkovic has high hopes for the fans' support, believing that an unbreakable bond has been established between the fans, players, and coaching staff.
Milenkovic said: "I have no doubt that the fans will give a huge roar, and that power will inspire us to give our all on the field and fight to the end for the glory of this city and the club."
