PSG challenges Dortmund on Wednesday evening at home.

A necessity which will not prevent them from being ambitious in the game. Luis Enrique, their coach, made the promise during the pre-match press conference.
Luis Enrique relieves external pressure
“We will no longer be more careful than usual, he proclaimed. It will be a match like the quarter-final. Speculating is not our way of playing. We will try to win with our football. It’s going to be a great show, there are going to be goals. »
The Asturian coach also indicated that his team has no more pressure than the three other teams still competing in this event. “To be eliminated in the semi-finals will be a disappointment for everyone. Not just for us (…) We must embrace our ambition. You shouldn’t have pressure as a threat. We are arriving at the perfect time of the season.”
He has already forgotten Barça
Speaking of pressure, he also said he “hopes” that the qualification acquired against Barça has freed his men from a weight. “But tomorrow we will have to be competitive, he warned all the same. History is good, but it may or may not repeat itself. The goal is to win tomorrow and my team is courageous.”
Luis Enrique also refuted the status of “big favorite” of this confrontation, which the press granted to his team. “That’s why I’ve been saying for a long time that the press knows nothing about football. The beautiful thing is enjoying a special match in a unique atmosphere in Europe. »
