Manchester City captain Fernandinho says it's 'really satisfying' to have made the Champions League final and praised his team-mates for breaking the 'stigma' surrounding their previous European attempts.
Fernandinho - who is in his eighth season with City after joining from Shakhtar Donetsk - says it is an 'honour' to play in the final and that he is 'motivated' to walk away as a champion.
The captain claims nothing less than '200 per cent' will be acceptable on the night after making their first ever Champions League final in Porto.
'There was still that stigma of the fact that the team had never made it to the final before, that we were an inexperienced team in this competition, the club I mean – historically speaking – but I think this season our team has managed to reach a high standard,' the Brazilian told Goal.
