Following the 1-6 debacle in Munich, Martín Demichelis is calling for a different mindset from his team. “We have a big game ahead of us tomorrow at the Bernabéu, and we’ll need to be fully focused. After the loss, it’s important for us to stay alert and play our game with courage and character. We’ll try to impose our style of play,” said RB Leipzig head coach Martín Demichelis ahead of Wednesday’s Champions League match (9:00 p.m./DAZN) at Real Madrid. RB captain David Raum is also aware of the difficulty of the situation. “After the 6-1 loss, morale was at rock bottom at first, but the very next day we were already talking it over among ourselves. We’re all at a point where we know what went wrong. Tomorrow we have the chance to show a different side,” said Raum, adding: “There were several issues that didn’t work out. Our intensity wasn’t there, and our game plan depends on that, too.” The return of Christoph Baumgartner to Leipzig’s roster following his muscle injury offers a ray of hope.
