JAKARTA - The draw for the last 16 of the Champions League brought together Paris Saint-Germain (PSG) with Bayern Munich. The meeting of the two big teams at the beginning was called the morning final.
Both PSG and Munich are currently in good form. These two teams appear dominant, both on the domestic and European stages.
Many think that Les Parisien ideally meets Munich in the final round. Unfortunately, the draw required these two giant teams to clash at the start.
PSG's technical director, Luis Campos, admitted that he had thought about the possibility of meeting Bayern since his team underwent the last preliminary round match at Juventus headquarters. Despite having to undergo a tough match, Campos still sees this as a positive thing.
According to him, facing a big team like Die Roten is a great opportunity for Kylian Mbappe and his friends to cultivate high motivation.
"This (against Munich) is a great opportunity for us to continue the great season we have had. Playing against a big club will obviously inspire us a lot from the start", said Campos, quoted by Sky Sports on Tuesday, November 8.
Campos is optimistic that his team can go far, especially since PSG has a lot of ammunition that can make a difference. He feels PSG will show their best.
"This is the right time to play against Bayern because we feel in very good condition and confident", said the Portuguese-born man.
The last 16 of the Champions League will only take place in February and March next year, but Campos feels the euphoria is starting to be felt now.
With a long pause, Campos thinks PSG has enough time to prepare for the two matches. It was meant to be able to give the world a message about what level they were at now.
"It's an opportunity to show the world what a great coach we have, what a great team we have, and the positive football we play", he said.
