After dumping out Bayern, João Neves eyes the final: we're ready | OneFootball

João Neves did not hide his satisfaction with PSG’s qualification for the Champions League final. In the aftermath of the match, which took place in Munich, the former Benfica midfielder lavished praise on the team managed by Luis Enrique, but also made a point of highlighting the quality and work the Bavarian club has been producing.

"We are very happy with what we have done so far. Congratulations to Bayern, they are a great team. In my opinion, after us, the best in Europe and in the world," the Portugal international began by telling the press gathered at the Allianz Arena, praising Vincent Kompany’s side.

"We managed to prove at home and away that we are the best team. We managed to attack, defend, suffer, and keep our composure with and without the ball. That is what a great team does, and that is what we did. It was a very difficult match, I’m even too tired to speak, but very happy with what we have done throughout the whole Champions League campaign. Winning or losing, we are already very happy," João Neves said.

"As I said last year, I arrived here with a very clear project regarding what the club was and what they wanted from me and from the team. We are making it happen and we are very happy with our goals. Winning the Champions League was never the objective, but rather to fight until the end and give our all. I think that is the best way to reach moments like this. That is how we did it and how we will continue to do it," said the former Benfica player.

"We are going to face one of the great teams in the world, Arsenal, and we are prepared. Our staff do a good job studying what they do and who they are. We trust them, they trust us, and that is what a team is," added PSG’s number 87, offering a confident message ahead of the final against Arsenal, scheduled for 30 May.
