The captain of Madrid's "Real" spoke at a press conference today ahead of the match with Paris' "Saint-Germain", emphasizing that the team must be especially focused and not make any mistakes in these matches.
This evening in Paris, the return leg of the UEFA Champions League will take place. Real won the first match 3-1, so it is expected that PSG will try to cause real trouble for their opponents' defense.
“Our priorities in these matches are attitude and concentration - here we need to have more than the seven senses,” said S. Ramos.
“There is no room for mistakes in these matches. One mistake and we could already be left behind in the quarterfinals. It will be a very important day, reminiscent of a final.
“No one will give us any gifts here, so we cannot afford to think that we are already in the quarterfinals. The team has to give their all to progress to the next stage,” continued the defender.
When asked if Neymar's injury would affect the PSG team, S. Ramos said: “Neymar is an outstanding player, but we all know very well who will replace him - it's Di Maria. He is an amazing player, and it's especially difficult to stop him one-on-one.”
These matches coincide with the birthday of the Real team - today this club celebrates 116 years, so motivation should not be lacking for the players for this reason.
