Champions League: “We are ready for anything,” warns Edin Terzic before PSG-Dortmund

“If it is necessary, we will run 20 kilometers more” than PSG on Tuesday (9 p.m.) in the semi-finals return of the Champions League at the Parc des Princes, promised Borussia Dortmund coach Edin Terzic on Monday, referring to the final at Wembley like “a huge dream”. During the 1-0 victory in the first leg in Dortmund, on the Westfalenstadion pitch, the Borussia players ran 120 kilometers, or 10 more than the Parisians. “If necessary we will run 20 kilometers more. We have a big goal, a big dream. This is how we reached the semi-finals of the Champions League here,” explained the German technician at a press conference on Monday. “We talked about favorites before, if it were about favorites, we wouldn't be here. We are here because we have done a lot of good things,” he added.

Last week, “we tried something different, not playing defensively but finding spaces to create duels and opportunities,” explained Edin Terzic. We have great respect not only for the opponent, but also for the task that awaits us. The PSG project has been built for several years to win the Champions League, that is their big goal. It’s their mission and we have a huge dream that we want to realize,” he added, explaining that he is aware that his team will “need a mix identical to that of the first leg, regardless the way they are going to play. We will have to be just as courageous and resilient. We must have respect, but also the joy of achieving something great. This is our mission,” insisted the German technician.

Defender Mats Hummels, brilliant last Wednesday, felt that BVB needed to “take control of the ball”, so as not to “give chances to score” to Kylian Mbappé. “We had a good match last week, which gave us this little advantage, with which we will start the match (...). We were able to draw a lot of positives from the first leg, but we immediately said that a performance identical to that of last week would not be enough to go to the final,” warned Terzic. He continued: “We’ll see what story the match offers us, but we’re ready for anything. We've done such good things this season, it would be a shame to stop. Since we're already here, we might as well improve further. We are here to earn this ticket” for Wembley on June 1st.
