Kane Confident Bayern Can Turn Things Around to Beat PSG and Reach Champions League Final
Harry Kane believes Bayern Munich can overturn a 4-5 first-leg defeat to PSG in the Champions League semi-final second leg at home on May 6.
Harry Kane, Bayern Munich's striker, believes the German side can overturn the result and beat Paris Saint-Germain in the UEFA Champions League semi-final second leg to advance to the final. Bayern lost the first leg 4-5 away to PSG on April 28 in an intense encounter.
After the match, Kane expressed confidence that Bayern have a chance to turn things around in the second leg. "It comes down to who can take their chances next week," he said. "We had plenty of opportunities today and it should be the same next week. Playing at home with our fans backing us, we hope that will push us towards victory."
"Overall, we had moments early on where we could have closed the game out," Kane added. "So I'm very proud we managed to come back to 5-4, because playing away from home and chasing a 2-5 deficit is incredibly difficult. But we fought back and got ourselves back into it."
PSG manager Luis Enrique reflected on the thrilling encounter, saying: "We're very happy and I think we deserved to win, but we also deserved a draw, and we could have even deserved to lose because this match was outstanding."
"I've never seen a match with this kind of rhythm before," Enrique continued. "I have to praise both teams and every single player. When you're leading 5-2 like that, the opponent is taking a huge risk. They're a top team, it's very difficult, and the second leg will be equally challenging."
The second leg will be played at Bayern's home ground on May 6.
