According to statements made by someone close to the club, PSG players are not calm before Wednesday’s match against Real Sociedad.
PSG faces Real Sociedad on Wednesday in the round of 16 first leg of the Champions League. An important deadline and one to which the players of the capital present themselves with a certain apprehension. This was revealed on Tuesday by Jérôme Rothen, who is often very well informed of what is happening within the club.
“PSG players are afraid of looking like idiots”
»They are afraid, that’s the feeling of the game. And it’s normal that there is fear in the PSG squad as the Champions League approaches. They don’t want to be seen as idiots. To lose this match which is largely playable. This is the worst draw that can happen. And the fear will translate even more when there will be the famous Champions League music,” he confided this Tuesday in his show Rothen s’ignée.
Rothen also indicated that the Parisians “will definitely struggle in the return match” and that is why he “We will already have to make a small difference in this first leg”.
With this state of mind, the French champions clearly risk falling by the wayside as they have so often done at this stage of the competition. It would clearly be a tragedy for the entire club and the supporters.
Note that Daniel Riolo thinks that Wednesday’s meeting will only be a formality for the Ile-de-France residents. On Winamax, he declared that he absolutely did not see “no difficulty” in this match.
