‘Leo’ Messi believes Paris Saint Germain are in a positive moment after their recent Ligue 1 wins to try and turn the Champions League round of 16 against Bayern Munich. “We arrived well and we are trained to turn the situation around”assured the Argentine star in a statement on the Paris club’s television.
He PSG traveled to Germany this Monday because of the strike day that will take place in France on Tuesday and the ‘flea’ predicted that the second leg of the round of 16 against Bayern will take place “a very balanced game, very difficult, like the first one that was decided by small things” in favor of the German team (0-1).
He also conceded that the Allianz Arena is a “strong” stadium where it’s difficult to win as a visitor, but he said they would leave “with the great illusion of being able to continue on the path to the ‘Meister'”. “We’ll try,” he said. The captain of Argentina’s world-champion team in Qatar stressed that he feels much better in his second season at the Parisian club than in the first.
“In the first year it was very difficult for me to adapt to Paris for various reasons”, he admitted, but pointed out that he is now “with a lot of enthusiasm, a lot of desire, more comfortable at the club and in the city”. Additionally, his World Cup triumph as Argentina captain and his recent FIFA The Best award, received in Paris last week, have calmed his spirits. “I feel very good”he assured.
