AC Milan boss Clarence Seedorf has praised Tuesday's Champions League last-16 opponents Atletico Madrid.
Milan travel to the Spanish capital looking to overturn a 1-0 deficit from the first leg, but Seedorf has conceded that his side face a difficult task against the La Liga outfit.
"Atletico Madrid are a team in the true sense of the word. They know what they want and they have quality," he told reporters at a press conference.
"They may not have great champions, but they have two or three world-class players and a good level throughout the side. This makes the difference out on the pitch.
"Atletico have been playing well for years. They know each other well and we respect their strong points. We want to limit them to give us opportunities."
Diego Costa scored the only goal of the match in the first leg.
