It was almost four years since he appeared in front of the press before a Champions League match, it was in 2018, before facing Red Star Belgrade. The Brazilian striker of PSG Neymar, back from injury, lingered for a long time on the match which awaits PSG this Wednesday evening against Real Madrid. An altruistic Neymar where the game took precedence over “I”.
He is not yet at 100% of his capacity, but Neymar still scares his opponents as much. Even when we call each other you“It is clear that Neymar is a great danger for us. He’s a truly top-notch player in the world, and we’re definitely concerned about him. Even if we only have to take care of ourselves“, confessed the Croatian during the traditional pre-match press briefing.
Juntos, together, the Ney mantra
Neymar, for his part, the modest cheek. King of dribbling and individual exploits yesterday, the Brazilian is changing today – perhaps maturity, or simply aware of his current limits – into an apostle of the collective. As a mantra, to beat Madrid and go further in the Champions League, Paris must play juntostogether.
“We must attack together, defend together, play together, because we are a team“, hammered the former player of FC Barcelona in a press conference.This is what will allow us to obtain what we want the most, the Champions League. If we play together, we have the opportunity to do great things, and not just in the game against Madrid.”
Less of a scorer, a little more of a passer, Neymar hopes to shine and make his friends shine tonight at the Bernabéu Leo Messi and Kylian MBappé to bring a galactic night to life at Paris Saint-Germain.
