Slot calls on Anfield to ‘find extra gear’ against PSG tonight
Slot calls on Anfield to ‘find extra gear’ against PSG tonight Arne Slot has called on the Liverpool fans to find an extra gear and inspire his team to a Champions League comeback against PSG. Liverpool welcome to European champions to Anfield for the second leg of their quarter-final tie tonight. The Reds trail 2-0 from the first meeting in Paris, following a dominant performance from the French side at the Parc des Princes.
Slot acknowledges his side will need to produce an incredible comeback to progress, but is confident the home fans can play their part. He said the Anfield atmosphere will be ‘just as important’ as the performance from his players. “Just as important as our performance, so I think we have to be much, much, much better than we were last week,” Slot said at his pre-match press conference.
“Their players are experienced players, they have experienced Anfield a year ago, so they think that they know what’s coming up. “So, I can only hope that our fans can find an extra gear compared to last season, which I’d argue if it’s possible because the atmosphere last season was unbelievable. “But I think our fans are up for it to make it even louder, which is also needed because then their players get what they don’t expect.
First of all, a better performance from us, which I do think they would expect, by the way – it’s hardly possible to play at the same level again. And our fans, I think I can trust them [to be] even louder than last season. ” Read – Liverpool vs PSG – Match preview and team news See more – Liverpool vs PSG – Predicted lineup and team news Follow the Football Faithful on Social Media: Facebook | Instagram | Twitter | YouTube
