Robben eyes second Champions League Glory

By Daily Sportsbay on September 20, 2018

There is no arguing that the Champions League is a rather special competition for Arjen Robben.

The 34-year-old endured the biggest low of his club career when he missed a penalty in the final of the 2011-12 tournament, leaving Bayern Munich fans in tears as Chelsea lifted the trophy at the Allianz Arena instead.

“I don’t know whether this could be my last chance to win the Champions League; time will tell,” Robben told Goal.

“Either way, it is another chance to win it. Our goal is obviously to go as far as possible. But we are only just about to start the group stages.

“We want to take things one step at a time and ensure we progress to the knockout stages.”

“You always have to learn from what went wrong in the past,” he added. “You have to analyse where you can improve.

“Games in the latter stages of the Champions League get decided by small details. Sometimes you have to point the finger at yourself, but sometimes things happen that are outside your own influence sphere.”
