(Paris)
This is the big day for Paris
SG. Three weeks after falling to Real
Madrid (3-1) in the round of 16 at Santiago Bernabeu stadium, Unai Emery's
players found the Merengue for the return leg at Parc des Princes. Without Neymar injured in the ankle, the leader
of Ligue 1 will have to find enough
resources to avoid a new frustration European elimination through early March.
Encouragingly, the club of the capital is sovereign at home,
unbeaten for 51 games, a record in Europe. The Parisian public will have a role
to play tonight and have to push the players to help reverse the scenario of
the first leg. In the spring of 1993, the gate of Saint-Cloud had already
staged this type of remontada with the same score to catch up and the same
opponent on the lawn.
Di Maria was like the fifth wheel of the coach of the
Parisian squad a few weeks ago. Neymar
rendered unavailable for injury, he appears today as the major offensive asset
of PSG as the club prepares to play
its most important match so far this
season, with the eighth-final return of Champions
League face at Real Madrid.
