Almaty coach: Being able to play against Real Madrid at home is historic for the entire Kazakhstan

Before the Champions League match against Real Madrid, Almaty Kerat coach Ulazbakhkin attended the pre-match press conference.

He said: "They (Real Madrid) are very fast and can launch a counterattack at any time. We must focus on their forwards. The defenders need to work hard. Of course, the players will go all out and try to play smartly."

"This game is not only historic for us, but also for Kazakhstan. Since the game is held at our home court, our chances of winning will be greater than the away game, we must believe in ourselves. Confronting the top clubs is a valuable experience and an important test for us."
