Jemawa, Arne Slot yakin Liverpool bisa mengalahkan PSG di leg perempat final Liga Champions

JAKARTA - Liverpool manager Arne Slot is so confident and confident that his team can defeat Paris Saint-Germain (PSG). The two teams will meet in the second leg of the Champions League quarterfinal at Anfield Stadium, Wednesday, April 15, 2026, early morning WIB.

In the first leg last week, The Reds lost to PSG at the Parc des Princes Stadium, which then left them behind 0-2 on aggregate.

To qualify for the semi-finals of the Champions League, Liverpool needs a victory with a margin of three goals or more. The requirement is obviously not easy for the Reds, especially lately the performance of the club from the port is going up and down.

On the other hand, the opponent that Liverpool will face is also not a random team. Currently, PSG even has the status of defending champion and leader of the standings in Ligue 1.

Even though it's not easy, Arne Slot is so confident that the Reds can get rid of Les Parisiens at Anfield because they have passed strong opponents in the Champions League and the English League this season. He also hopes Liverpool will perform amazingly to beat PSG.

"We don't always play against PSG in 49 home games, but we have played against very strong opponents in the Champions League and the English League."

"There is a belief that we can do special things tomorrow, but we have to be very, very special to achieve that because we are playing against the European champions."

"That makes the task more complicated but not impossible," Arne Slot said as quoted by The Guardian, Tuesday, April 14, 2026.

Eliminating Galatasaray in the previous round and the victory over Fulham at the weekend were considered Arne Slot as Liverpool's capital to conquer PSG in the Champions League.

"In the first 35 minutes at the Etihad (against Manchester City in the FA Cup), did you expect us to be 0-4 down after 20 minutes?"

"Do you expect us after losing 0-1 to Galatasaray then winning 4-0 and we can score eight or nine goals at home?"

"Several times we showed that we can be much better than when we played against PSG, it's clear. Even on Saturday (April 11, 2026) against Fulham, it shows how important a goal is to change the momentum," said the Dutch coach.
