However, the German versatile midfielder/right back said Bayern still have a chance to make it past Paris Saint-Germain as despite the fact that they need to score twice without conceding in order to advance.

“A lot will come down to mentality, but also efficiency. We already showed a good mentality in the first game but we weren’t efficient enough. This time we need to do both

“In the first leg, they [Neymar and Mbappé] threatened three times and scored three times. Apart from that, I don’t remember Paris having that many chances. Overall, our attack had more of the ball and more chances. Now we have to take these chances”, he added.
