DBasia.news – Paris Saint-Germain management did the investments by signing top players with expensive prices. Let’s say Edinson Cavani, Neymar, and also Kylian Mbappe. PSG have succeeded to be the winner of France Ligue 1. However, the main target is the Champions League.
PSG coach Thomas Tuchel insists the squad follow the confidence of Real Madrid if they want to win the Champions League. As we know, the Spanish LaLiga giant are the team with 13 Champions League titles.
Interestingly, within five past seasons, Madrid just failed to win one time, in 2015. “Real Madrid always play in a way that they are convinced that they can win the Champions League,” Tuchel told L’Equipe quoted by Diario AS.
“They have a generation of players know how to win big games and to resist the pressure,” Tuchel added.
Tuchel gives the example of Madrid’s performance in the Champions League last season. Zinedine Zidane squad almost eliminated against Juventus in the quarter-final. The same thing happened when they met Bayern Muenchen in the semifinal round. But in fact, Gareth Bale and friends finally become the winner.
“Real Madrid show us how we have to be. They have experience in these games, and over and over again, they know that in the end, they win those games,” Tuchel revealed.
PSG met Madrid in the Champions League round of 16 last season. During the first leg, Neymar and friends got 1-3 defeat. While in the second leg, PSG got defeated with a 1-2 score.
“I saw the second leg with my coaching staff, and you felt that PSG were not totally convinced of being able to win it, unlike many of the Real Madrid players,” the former coach of Mainz 05 and Borussia Dortmund said.
