Luis Suarez Insists Patience In Upcoming Match vs. PSG
By Laieke Abebe
Luis Suarez believes that a comeback can happen against PSG, but the team must have a methodical approach to the match.
Despite the large deficit Barcelona are facing against PSG, the players believe that they can complete a historic comeback. It will take a lot of work in the second leg. However, with the match being at Camp Nou, the fans will certainly back Barca on Wednesday. Luis Suarez thinks that the team can’t get all four goals back in a few minutes. Instead, he thinks the team should be patient when it comes to finding ways through the PSG defense.
"“We will try not to give chances away, but it’s difficult. What don’t have to be in a rush, both us and the fans have to have patience. A PSG goal could be decisive, but not necessarily, it depends on the moment. we’re aware that the quality they have [will have chances]. They know we’re capable of doing a lot of damage with the ball.”El Pistolero On the Barca Approach"
Suarez is right that a PSG away goal could effectively end Barca’s Champions League run. The defense has to play their best match of the season against a very talented PSG attack. If the back line doesn’t hold up, the already low chances of advancing will go even lower. However, with the Barca attack, the team is capable of scoring goals quickly. Despite the ability to score fast, El Pistolero won’t panic with the chances he gets.
