This Wednesday, Real Madrid e Paris Saint Germain will face each other for the return game of the round of 16 of Champions League. In a press conference prior to the match, Croatian Luka Modric praised rival Neymar and said that the Brazilian is a “great danger” for Carlo Ancelotti’s team.
“He’s a great player. I have a lot of affection for Neymar, I really like this type of player. Of course, he’s a great danger for us, like the other two (Messi and Mbappé), but him in particular. I know he’s coming back from a long injury , but with just one play he can do us a lot of damage, because he is a top player in the world, so we have to worry about him”. said the midfielder.
However, Modric stressed that the most important thing for Real Madrid players is to be focused on what they are going to do in the match.
“We have to be focused on what we’re going to do, how we’re going to be, with what energy, and that’s the most important thing tomorrow. I’m sure we’re going to do well,” he said.
In the first leg, Real Madrid was defeated 1-0 and will have to reverse the score to qualify. The ball starts at 17:00 (Brasília time), at the Santiago Bernabéu.
