Turning point in the Champions League. The fifth matchday will be played between tomorrow and the day after tomorrow and many big names are at risk: this is the case of Real Madrid but also of Bayern Munich and Paris Saint-Germain, who will compete tomorrow at the Allianz Arena. The Germans are 17th with six points and would currently be in the play-offs, while the French are 25th and currently first of those excluded: “We’re not used to being so low in the table. We know the situation we’re in,” said Harry Kane at the press conference. “If we want to finish in the top 8, we have to win every match, and this also applies to PSG. Tomorrow night will be an important match.
It will be a very complicated match. PSG is a great team, they have many stars and they try to dominate with ball possession. We will try to do the same by taking control of the ball. We will make sure to put them in difficulty by pressing them, especially the goalkeeper (the reference is to Donnarumma, who is not going through a good moment). PSG are very good with the ball and their midfield will try to keep it as much as possible and establish connections with their attackers more quickly to put us in difficulty”, assured the Bavarian club’s scorer.
