“We have to score goals and if we manage that we will be going to the final in Berlin.
The Colombian also commented on his excellent recent form and his header that hit the crossbar from point-blank range in the first leg against the Old Lady.
"I've always been competitive ever since I was a child and my number has always been 10.
“I'm having a good season and I’m in good form, I definitely want to continue on this road to help the team to achieve the goals.
“It was a strange episode when I hit the bar because it was a defender who hit the ball with his toe and diverted it onto the crossbar, it happens once in every 20 attempts and it happened to me.”
