The manager of Paris St-Germain, Luis Enrique, is convinced that his team will overturn a first leg deficit in Anfield and spends at the expense of Liverpool in the Champions League Round of 16.
Harvey Elliott marked the winner of the 87th minute in the seconds after the arrival and visit of goalkeeper Alisson produced an exceptional performance while the Reds established an advantage of the first leg in the Parc des Princes despite a dominant display of the Ligue 1 Leaders.
“Right now, it’s hard to think about the match positively,” Luis Enrique told TNT Sports. “We clearly deserve to win; We have created a lot of chance.
“This is one of our best Champions League [performances] This season. The best player was their goalkeeper Alisson. Football is, on several occasions, unfair, and we have to accept this.
“We are ready to [go to] Liverpool. We have nothing to lose. Liverpool has created a maximum or two chances, and we have created a lot. »»
