AC Milan and Dortmund played a goalless draw in their second group-stage fixture in the UEFA Champions League.
"We made it clear as we could,” he said about their gamelan.
“We wanted to be ourselves when we played AC Milan and we were not where we needed to be. I think that was with expected with the three defeats previously to that game, I think we came here with a lot more confident mood. Full credit to the players, they had to deliver it against world-class players."
"I think in every team talk I mention the crowd because they are so powerful, if we don’t use the crowd and play a style of football where they are not going to be involved in the game we are missing a trick."
