Luis Enrique mentions that the motivation is four times higher as Paris Saint-Germain aims to make history against Dortmund in the near future.
Stopping Mbappe key to Dortmund realizing ‘dream’, say Terzic and Can
In a bid to achieve a quadruple this season, Paris Saint-Germain boss Luis Enrique has expressed his team’s motivation. Having already secured the Trophee des Champion and with the Coupe de France final against Lyon on the horizon, PSG is determined to continue their success.
Enrique acknowledges the expectations of the board and emphasizes the need for improvement. He believes that with one month left in the season, PSG is still alive in every competition and aims to manage their emotions and pressure in the Champions League, which he considers the biggest competition in Europe.
While Enrique is focused on winning, he also emphasizes the importance of how they play. He sees the quadruple as a way to write the club’s and the city’s history.
On the other hand, Dortmund coach Edin Terzic believes that PSG’s main objective for the past decade has been to win Europe’s top competitions. Dortmund has already faced PSG this season in the ‘Group of Death’, where both teams advanced. Although PSG won in Paris, Dortmund topped the group.
To reach the semi-finals, Dortmund has overcome tough opponents like PSV Eindhoven and Atletico Madrid. Terzic acknowledges that his team may not be the favorites, but they have the greatest hunger to succeed. He believes that with the support of everyone involved, Dortmund has a huge opportunity to make it to the final.
Terzic acknowledges the challenge of stopping Mbappe, who has been in exceptional form this season. However, he emphasizes that it’s not just about Mbappe and that opponents need to focus on the entire PSG team.
In conclusion, Dortmund’s dream of reaching the Champions League final relies on their ability to stop Mbappe and perform as a team. Both Terzic and Can are aware of the challenge ahead but remain determined to achieve their goals.
