Casemiro warns Real Madrid teammates over Manchester City's "quality"

Real Madrid midfielder Casemiro has warned his teammates that they will face a Manchester City team full of "quality" when they go head to head in their Champions League semi-final second leg at the Bernabeu on Wednesday.

The tie is nicely poised heading into this week's showdown as the first leg at the Etihad Stadium ended in a goalless draw.

Sergio Aguero is arguably City's biggest threat as he has scored 28 goals in 41 appearances in all competitions this season, but Casemiro has claimed that the Argentine is not the only player who can cause trouble for Madrid.

"They've not only got Aguero, they've got big players with a lot of quality," Casemiro told Bwin's official website. "We have to be switched on to all of them and focused on the game.

"Play the same as we did there, with attitude and character. We have to play with a lot of attention and strength."

Madrid are unbeaten in their last seven games in all competitions.
