Liverpool/PSG – Szoboszlai speaks boldly about Paris and hope

This Tuesday at 9 p.m. (broadcast on Canal+), Paris Saint-Germain will face Liverpool at Anfield in the second leg of the 2025-2026 Champions League quarter-finals (2-0 in the first leg). At a press conference, Reds midfielder Dominik Szoboszlai (25) spoke about this match and the Parisian opponent with great determination.

Szoboszlai: “we are ready to die on the pitch”

“What is the mindset? “We are going to give our best for hopefully only 90 minutes, but we are ready to die on the pitch, and I speak on behalf of the whole team. We really want it. Can Anfield change things? “Anfield will have a big impact tomorrow. We’ve seen it many times this season and in previous seasons. We know what it means to play for Liverpool, to play at Anfield in front of these supporters, we know what that feels like. PSG helped by the rest this weekend? “Of course, it’s different. When they can rest between the two matches, it gives them more time to recover, analyze the match and be ready for the game. For us, after the PSG match, we were already focused on Fulham. That makes things different, but that’s how it is, we have to deal with it, and our job is to deal with it.

Szoboszlai: “It’s a different team today.”

“The differences between PSG today and the one from five years ago? It’s a different team today. They have stars, but not necessarily the same kind as in the days of Kylian, Messi or Neymar. They have players with different attributes, in a different system. It is very difficult to play against them today. They are full of confidence. We are ready even if they are two goals ahead.”, comments relayed by RMC Sport and Foot Mercato.

It is only logical that Szoboszlai is showing maximum determination. It would be hard to understand if Liverpool viewed qualification as almost impossible. His club has to be ambitious. And in the end, the 2-0 scoreline, frustrating for PSG in the first leg, is far from suggesting an impossible mission. It is a significant gap, but everything can change very quickly. Especially if there is an early goal.

One can expect the Reds to come out strongly, with Anfield ready to help create a great European night. It will be up to the Parisians to find the right formula to calm that hope, whether through possession or goals. Ideally, both. In any case, Szoboszlai also knows that this Paris team must be respected, as they are far stronger collectively than in the past. We saw that clearly in the first leg, and it will have to be confirmed in the return leg with a major challenge to overcome on Liverpool’s pitch.
