Following the first-leg defeat to Manchester City, Paris Saint-Germain star Neymar says he will do anything to help Paris Saint-Germain beat even if it means that he has to “die on the pitch”.
PSG suffered a 2-1 defeat to City at Parc des Princes last week, which leaves them with a mountain to climb in the second leg at Etihad Stadium on Tuesday.
But, Neymar believes the French champions can overturn the deficit when they meet for the reverse fixture.
“The first thing to do now is to rest and then really refocus on the Champions League,” Neymar said after scoring in PSG’s 2-1 win over Lens on Saturday.
“We had a very tough first leg against Manchester City but we have to believe it no matter what the stats say or our percentage chance of winning.
“I think every Parisian should believe in us! I’m in the front line, and I’ll be the first warrior who goes into battle for the team.
“I will give the best of myself and I will do anything to bring this back no matter what, even if I have to die on the pitch.”
The winner in Manchester this week will meet either Chelsea or Real Madrid in the final, which will take place in Istanbul on May 29.
The Blues earned a 1-1 draw in Spain in the first leg of their semi-final tie and, therefore, have a slight advantage due to the away goal rule.
