Paris Saint-Germain goalkeeper Keylor Navas is adamant that in tomorrow`s rematch against Barcelona in the 1/8 finals of the Champions League, the team must keep the same mentality from the first match, when the French champion won 4:1 at the Camp Nou.
We are all motivated and focused on the match. We are determined to do our best in this match and to play the best we can. All players are motivated, this is one of the matches we like to win. That is what matters. We need to be confident and do our best to avoid a situation that could be to their advantage. This is the most important thing for us.
Nothing has changed since the first meeting. We respect Barcelona and that does not change. At no point did we think we were anything more than them. This mentality should not change. We need to be fully focused, give 100% in every aspect and try to win. It is clear to us that we have to win this match to continue in the next round. That`s why we need to go out on the field with the same desire as in the first match, maybe even bigger. We prepared for this match both in attack and defense. We feel ready for a strong performance.
We played very well in the first match and we know we have to make the same effort. We cannot allow anything less. We have a great team and we face a strong opponent, but we know we can win. We want to win and for that to happen, we have to attack. This is important for us, this is our mentality. We will play at home. We all want to play this game and give our best to win. We are focused on this goal. I am very happy to have the opportunity to play. It is a privilege to play in a Champions League match. to face Barcelona is a source of motivation for every player, Navas said at his press conference before the match.
