BARCELONA: Paris Saint-Germain manager Luis Enrique said his players were strong enough to overcome Barcelona in the European Champions League quarter-final rematch.
Spanish champions Barcelona won 3-2 in Paris in the first leg last week, and PSG will need to overcome a deficit at the Olympic Stadium tomorrow to advance to the semi-finals.
“PSG have never bounced back from losing the first game, but tomorrow is the day.
“After losing such an important match, the days after are very difficult.
“It’s very difficult to recover mentally, but the good thing about football is that you have another game against the same opponent.
“We are sure of what we are going to do and I think we are quite prepared,” said Enrique.
Barcelona, under Enrique, thrashed PSG 6-1 in 2017 to overturn a 4-0 deficit in the first leg of the last 16.
PSG will return to strengthen Achraf Hakimi after the Moroccan player was unable to play in the first match due to suspension.
