Redknapp Says Nothing is Impossible

Harry Redknapp, Tottenham manager

"We played well on Saturday so we're in a good frame of mind. It's a fantastic game to look forward to though we'd like to be a lot closer. The first leg didn't go our way but it's a great game to look forward to – Real Madrid at White Hart Lane in the last eight of the Champions League. The fans are looking forward to it and so are the players. We'll give it our best shot; that's all we can do. Hopefully we'll play very well and make a real game of it.

We've got to turn in a great performance and see where it takes us. You can't be that open against a team with world-class players. We can't bomb forward, get ripped apart on the counterattack and get hammered. We've got to be controlled and take our chances if they come. Everyone feels the tie is over and we know it will take a miracle, but miracles do happen. If we play very well then you never know.

It's been a great run and we've enjoyed every minute. Every game has been fantastic, home and away, and we've been involved in some amazing games. When we came into this, we would have taken being in the last eight. I saw Fulham at home to Juventus last year [in the UEFA Europa League round of 16]. They were 3-1 down after the first leg then 1-0 down at home but won the tie, so nothing is impossible."
