Vincent Kompany: We’ll approach Kiev game the same way

Vincent Kompany wants Manchester City to progress to the Champions League quarter-finals in style with a win over Dynamo Kiev on Tuesday.

City are currently 3-1 up from the first leg, but the City skipper says that the blues will approach the game as if scores are level and ensure passage to the quarter-finals.

Speaking to the Mirror, he said:

All of us are concentrated and will approach it as a game that stands at 0-0 and try to win it. And from there we will see.

Kompany, who impressed in a disappointing draw with Norwich at the weekend, says that reaching the next phase is an important step for City, who look to compete with the elite clubs in Europe.

It has to happen first. I will put it this way. We have always said as a club we need to progress and with the Champions League it was the very first time as a club that we qualified. You know, reaching the quarter-finals would give us that little bit more experience and be exciting for the fans.

City may well be the only English team left in the Champions League by the time Wednesday comes around, with fellow Premier League side Arsenal trailing Barcelona going into the second leg at the Nou Camp.
