ROXANA ISTRATE: “In my opinion to play Champions league it’s very important because it’s a competition with the best players in Europe and you can learn a lot from them. You can improve a lot of things and help yourself to be a better player. I am looking forward to give my best in every match and make some good results.”

Coach ALMUDENA ROLDAN: “The Champions League is the most important competition that a club could play and because of that for me and my club it is a great achievement and an honor to be able to participate in this league. The extra value is that we will play in our center and our players will be able to learn a lot from the top class matches. Last but not least I think it is also very favorable for our small city because it would be the first time that a club from the province plays the Champions League.”
