Confident that RB Leipzig as a team can match PSGâs superstars, admits Moritz Volz
RB Leipzig coach Moritz Volz has confessed that the German side have more than enough in their squad to put up a team that can match PSGâs superstars in the Champions League. Leipzig faces the Ligue 1 giants in their semi-final clash with PSG walking into the game as the favourites to win.
Despite walking into the knockout stages of the Champions League for the first time in their history, RB Leipzig are in the semi-finals. They produced a tactical masterclass to outwit Diego Simeone and his Atletico Madrid side that saw Julian Naglesmann and his team walk away with a 2-1 win. It wasnât as easy as many predicted, though, with both teams putting up an incredible fight, but things become even harder now for Leipzig.
They face PSG and their superstar studded team after the Parisians beat Atalanta to reach the semi-finals of the Champions League. Yet despite that, Moritz Volz has admitted that he believes Leipzig âas a team can matchâ PSGâs superstar lineup. The Leipzig coach and former Fulham star also added that the German side know theyâre facing an incredible team with some of the best players in the world and thus theyâll have to be at their best.
âWhen youâre in the semi-final of the Champions League and youâve beaten established teams like Tottenham and AtlĂ©tico, you know you have what it takes to go all the way. Weâre far from saying we are dead certs, but we want to make sure PSG will find it really, really tough. Weâre facing a different animal, a team that has great and perhaps better individual quality, certainly up front, where weâre going to face some of the best players in the world,â Voltz told the Guardian
"But we still feel very confident that as a team we can match them. Do I care that weâre probably not favourite to win it? No, I donât. I know what we can and what we canât do, and I certainly see an opportunity for us to stay here a little bit longer.â
