Marco Verratti wants PSG to win the game in Madrid too

Marco Verratti, one of PSG’s own names, believes that at the Bernabeu they will have to go on the attack and admits the defensive limitations of his team.

What Verratti thinks about game in Madrid

I think we shouldn’t think too much about the first leg, about the result we had. It’s as if we had played the first half and we still have the second to play. We have a small advantage, but that doesn’t mean anything, we won’t be able to try to defend, especially because it’s not our game and we don’t know how to do it. I think you have to go there with a big mind, with a lot of personality. We’ll have to try to play our game and be 100%, whether it’s mentally or tactically. Individually too, because it will be very important to win duels, either in defense or in midfield. Give your all to play a great game, because against Madrid playing 80% won’t be enough. They won’t give us gifts. You have to earn qualification and go there to win.”

The Bernabeu factor 

We will have to play a great game. Do it even better than in the Parc des Princes, because we know that these players, at home, will necessarily play differently. Afterwards, we know the ingredients to put in to win a game. What I want to say It’s that with the players we have, for me, we can control the game. We also have a team that can play on the counterattack, because with the speed we have up front, with Messi, Neymar, Di María, Kylian, when we have space, we become even more dangerous. We know this team and we will prepare for this match as we did for the first leg, in the best possible way. I am sure we will be ready.”
