Ospina – We must impose ourselves

David Ospina – Arsenal’s second ‘keeper, but one who appears to have been utilised fully in Europe, has spoken of the need for the team to “fully impose” themselves against Olympiacos on Tuesday night.

Lamenting that night in Eastern Europe a fortnight ago, Ospina commented to Arsenal Player that it was a bad result.

We didn’t begin our Champions League campaign as we would’ve hoped, with a bad result in Croatia.

[We must] take this great opportunity to get points on the board.

After a 2-1 disappointment in the opening tie, Arsenal now find themselves under pressure to take three points from this game, wary of the tricky ties against the German Champions. Ospina recognises that tonight’s “excellent opposition” are a team with history.

[Olympiacos are a] historic club with a great team and track record.

After morale boosting victories away at Tottenham and Leicster, Ospina appeared ready for the upcoming challenge.

We have shown that in difficult moments we can cope.

I think that despite what happened in the first game, we know that this game is very important for us, and for the aspirations we have.

The Colombian goalkeeper believes that the Gunners must create as many chances as possible in order to win.

Impose ourselves, have a lot of possession, create as many chances as possible and be strong at the back.

This is the aim.
