Alessandro Massimo from the FC Zenit St Petersburg press conference:
Zenit striker Hulk told the gathered journalists that he is doing his utmost to find form at the Russian side and hopes he can help inspire them to a UEFA Europa League place tomorrow in Milan.

I'm working hard and I think that I will able to fully adapt here at Zenit. My team-mates' confidence and help will be crucial in this process. Tomorrow it will be very important to win even though we cannot get through. I have some Brazilian friends in Milan but I will only be focused on the game. There is no friendship on the pitch, only after the match.

Dmitri Rogovitski in Moscow:
Jano Ananidze will miss FC Spartak Moskva's visit to Celtic FC because of a knee injury suffered today. The 20-year-old ended a morning training session with a trip to a hospital where he was provisionally diagnosed with a meniscus injury. The Georgian international will be fully examined later, but he will definitely miss Spartak's last game in Europe this season, as the Moscow side are condemned to finish last in Group G.

Aurélien Sagnier from the Paris Saint-Germain FC press conference:
PSG defender Maxwell spoke of overcoming the team's recent rough patch as they take on Porto for top spot in Group A tomorrow.

Each match requires concentration, especially when you play every three days. We have prepared this fixture as any other, and we hope to get a positive result. Porto is an experienced team, but we have a certain level of experience too, and we’ll try to be more efficient. When you change things, it always generates difficulties, ups and downs – and we are still in this process of change. It’s important to keep on working and getting past this situation as soon as possible. Zlatan Ibrahimović is the same player he’s always been, with a sheer will to win. That’s something he’s trying to share with the team – so that's good for all of us.

Steffen Potter from the Borussia Dortmund press conference (@UEFAcomSteffenP):
Ahead of Dortmund's home game against Manchester City FC, Moritz Leitner spoke to the media about his personal progression this season, and how he would like to cap it with a win tomorrow night.

I am just happy to be allowed to play. I have played more so far than I did last season and I hope that I will continue to develop and play a good season here. I am grateful that the coach puts his trust in me. No matter who starts tomorrow, you wouldn't be a footballer if you didn't want to take three points from every match. We want to win and show the BVB fans another good game here. I just want to put in my performance to ensure that the three points stay in Dortmund.
