JAKARTA - Manchester City will not play defensively in the second leg of the Champions League semi-final against Paris Saint-Germain at the Etihad Stadium, Tuesday local time (Wednesday WIB).
This was confirmed by City center-back, John Stones, even though his team currently has an aggregate advantage thanks to the 2-1 victory they picked up from Paris a week ago.
"We have to attack like in other matches, play to win," Stones said in a pre-match press conference quoted by Antara from City's official website, Monday night.
"We are not going into the game thinking we have to sit still, because the job is over and we just need to defend.
"If that happens, then everything will fall apart. We have to be ourselves, play like Manchester City and as players we can't wait," he added.
Stones admitted that the win at PSG headquarters a week ago gave him and his teammates a big injection of confidence.
Moreover, the victory was obtained after City had left behind PSG first.
"The character we showed to be able to come from behind is not something easy. We feel great pride and are very satisfied after the victory," he said.
"We have great confidence for tomorrow and hopefully we can finish the job to reach the final," concluded Stones.
If they are able to maintain aggregate advantage, City will have the opportunity to appear in their inaugural Champions League final.
