Ajax goalkeeper Andre Onana was not getting carried away after his side beat Tottenham 1-0 in London in the first leg of their Champions League semifinal. The Cameroon stopper, who was part of Barcelona's academy, spoke to Movistar after the game but played down the Dutch side's win.
"We have a lot of confidence in ourselves," he said. "We came [to London] with a winning mentality and I am really happy with how we played, but a lot of people think we're now in the final and there's a lot of work to be done. We will have to fight hard at home to make it. If we get carried away, [Spurs] can do us a lot of damage.
"It was a difficult game. We were good in the first half and had lots of chances and when we've had to suffer after the break, we've been able to. It's a good result and you have to congratulate the team's hard work."
On a possible final against ex-club Barca, Onana added: "They're a great team and it would be special to play against them, but that's a long way away. I hope to reach the final and, if we do, I don't care who we play against. I don't mind, having eliminated Real Madrid and Juventus, we don't fear anyone, but there's still a long way to go."

If you can beat Bayern,Madrid,juventus then who the hell do you have to fear I respect Ajax a lot I’m a Barca fan but with what I’ve seen this season they are among top 3 teams until Barca get to the final before we know because Barca vs Liverpool is 50:50 it’s only if you don’t know football or a blind football fan that you will say otherwise

manu was over confident when playing Barcelona... look at what happened... now klopp is playing the same game... just shutup with that arrogance and put your team on the pitch. its not about who is better who is worst... its about football and from what i saw over the past few months, you simply cant stop messi with 3 or 4 players... because if you do that , just remember that its not only messi that plays in that team... the whole squad is unbelievable... liverpool has a good squad and am wishing for a draw but sorry guys i think that might be too much for liverpool. and if barca makes liverpool players tired, newcastle would be responsible for liverpool's lost league (once again)
