'It is only half-time' - Ex-Bayern defender Rohr warns Neymar, Mbappe & Co. ahead of return leg
Published: April 08, 2021
Former Bayern Munich defender and current Super Eagles coach Gernot Rohr believes there is all to play for in the return leg of the Champions League meeting between Paris Saint-Germain and the reigning champions after the Ligue 1 side escaped with a win on Wednesday night. However, Bayern Munich need a big performance in Paris after losing 3-2 in the first leg at the Allianz Arena (München).
Kylian Mbappe and Neymar were the star of the show for the Parisians with the France wonderkid scoring a brace and the Brazil superstar providing two assists, while Eric Maxim Choupo-Moting and Thomas Muller got on the scoresheet for the Bavarians.
PSG became the first team to defeat Bayern Munich in the Champions League since Liverpool in March 2019.
Speaking to Europe 1 after the game, Rohr said : "It is only half-time. I found Bayern above physically, it will not be easy for PSG to repeat this performance in six days".
Mauricio Pochettino's side host Bayern Munich at the Parc des Princes (Paris) on Tuesday, April 13.
German-Anglo-Nigerian midfielder Jamal Musiala will be hoping to be involved for Bayern Munich next week, he was an unused substitute in the first leg.
