When Luis gives advice to the opponent
Asked by El Mundo Deportivo, Luis Fernandez played the game.I think Real are in a bit of a difficult moment with all these injuries and everything that is affecting them. But it’s a team that I liked with its style of play, he explained. Now they have to think about scoring a goal quickly and they will surely be able to scare PSG. But it has to be quick.»
“I think this was perfectly seen during the last match against Monaco (0-0) in Ligue 1, continued Luis Fernandez. When the opposing team presses well and with intensity off the ball, they can scare PSG. But it’s true that the Parisians also have players capable of getting the ball out under pressure. But if we press them quickly and as high as possible… They will have to do it quickly, score and put pressure on PSG. This is what has historically hurt PSG the most in the Champions League.»
