"When you play this type of match, against this opponent who is undoubtedly the strongest team we have ever faced, the first thing I want to convey is that we have a one-goal advantage, but that means nothing in football,” Luis Enrique continued.
“We have the experience from last year. We are always looking to live up to the expectations of our supporters."

“We're going to play in Munich and we will look to be more competitive than ever,” said PSG manager Luis Enrique.
“Rafa Nadal once said that at one point in his career, his matches against [Roger] Federer and [Novak] Djokovic were the best motivation for him. That's what we want.
“We admire Bayern, but it's a motivation to be better.
“We're going to try to overcome a team that plays sensationally."

Harry Kane says that Bayern Munich could have “killed the game off” despite losing 5-4 to Paris Saint-Germain in the first leg of their blockbuster Champions League semi-final tie.
Kane scored the first of nine goals when he converted an early penalty for Bayern but the reigning champions responded through Khvicha Kvaratskhelia and Joao Neves to take the lead. Michael Olise equalised but a controversial penalty was awarded to PSG for handball and Ousmane Dembele sent the hosts into the half-time break 3-2 ahead.

The Bundesliga champions lost the first leg 5-4 but had plenty of chances to improve on that scoreline

Bayern have won seven of their last nine games against PSG.
That run includes a 1-0 triumph in the 2020 Champions League final in Lisbon thanks to a goal from former PSG winger Kingsley Coman.
Will Bayern break Parisian hearts once again?

Luis Diaz scored twice at the Parc des Princes in November to help Bayern to a 2-1 victory, despite the Colombian also collecting a red card in first-half added time.
He then scored against in last week’s 5-4 defeat at the same ground but will he be the same threat tonight?

This is the sixth season in the last nine in which the two teams have met in the Champions League.
PSG's first-leg victory ended Bayern's five-match winning streak in the fixture but Bayern have won five of their seven home matches against the French champions.

Paris Saint-Germain midfielder Warren Zaire-Emery says his team will look to impose their style of play onto Bayern Munich and try to win the game this evening.
"We're going to try to impose our game, to press like we do in every match and to win back the ball as much as possible,” he revealed.
“This team is made to attack and that's what we're going to try to do.”
