Copenhagen Ready To Launch Their Secret Weapon Against Atletico Madrid Boilesen

The first match takes place on Thursday, with the 25-year-old left-back optimistic that his team can upset the Spanish giants with a strong performance at Parken. Copenhagen’s home ground has been something of a fortress for them this season in European competition, as it was there they claimed seven points from a possible nine in the group stages to reach this point. Moreover, they did not concede a single goal at their home venue, which Boilesen believes could offer a platform for an unlikely success....
