Paris Saint-Germain coach Luis Enrique assured on Monday that his team is confident in turning around the tie against Barcelona, after the home defeat (2-3) last week, in the first leg of the Champions League quarter-finals.
"This second leg is a bit different because we didn't have a game in between. We had time to analyse and improve our performance and my first reflection after the game was that it was very close, well played by both teams, but the result doesn't reflect what we deserved. At the very least, we deserved a draw. But the 2-3 result means we have to do better tomorrow (Tuesday). We are a team that does not speculate, tomorrow (Tuesday) that word does not exist and we are fully convinced that we will turn it around", the Spanish coach began by saying, at a press conference.
"After 27 games without losing, one day had to come. It came on the least desirable day, but it means we have to pick ourselves up and improve our performance. I think there is no need to exaggerate when you don't lose for 27 games, nor to tear your hair out when you lose. I have no doubt that we will compete, we are eager to give our fans reasons to be happy", he continued.
"We will press high and Barça will use Lewandowski to break lines and create. I think Ter Stegen made a record of 24 long passes the other day to get past our pressure. Barça will use the last line to create problems for us, with the ball or in space. I think there will be goals from both sides in the game and the urgency is for us, but I hope that during the game Barça will be at a disadvantage. I hope it will be fun for the spectators, not so much for the coaches, because we like to control the game", he concluded.
