Neymar Vows To Knock Manchester City Out Of Champions League
Neymar has vowed to knock Manchester City out of the UEFA Champions League when Paris Saint Germain travel to England for the semi-final second leg on Tuesday.
The French champions have it all to do at the Etihad Stadium after losing the first leg at the Parc des Princes 2-1 last Wednesday.
Mauricio Pochettino’s men are looking to play in their second straight Champions League final, having lost last season’s decider to Bayern Munich.
Neymar was on target as PSG defeated Lens 2-1 on Saturday to boost their chances of retaining the Ligue 1 title and speaking after the game, the Brazilian international was vocal in his quest to help the Parisians conquer Europe for the very first time.
“The first thing to do now is to rest and then really refocus on the Champions League,” Neymar told PSG’s official media channel.
"We had a very tough first leg against Manchester City but we have to believe it no matter what the stats say or our percentage chance of winning.
"I think every Parisian should believe in us! I’m in the front line, and I’ll be the first warrior who goes into battle for the team.
"I will give the best of myself and I will do anything to bring this back no matter what, even if I have to die on the pitch."
