The Paris Saint-Germain coach has urged Les Parisiens to play with same attitude and determination when the Paris giants take on Valencia CF in the knock-out stages of the Champions League
The draw for the last 16 of the Champions League was held yesterday in http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Valencia-CF-c40864, and Carlo Ancelotti feels that the draw is not a bad one considering the quality
of other teams in the competition.
While talking to reporters, the 53-year-old stated that Paris Saint-Germain want to go as far as possible in the Champions League. The boss added that he wanted to avoid Real Madrid in the next round and that’s why http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Valencia-c40863 seem a relatively better opposition.
"The most dangerous side as Real Madrid, so naturally Valencia seem a less dangerous prospect.”
Talking about their European opponents, Ancelotti, who lead AC Milan to two Champions League trophies during his time in http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Spain-c3011 and they are capable of causing trouble to any team in the world.
The former http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Chelsea-c38786 manager said that although Valencia have been struggling in La Liga lately, they are capable of recovering from that. And the boss knows that Paris Saint-Germain need to be at their very best to get positives results from those two games
against the Spanish club.
“Valencia are going through a tough patch at the moment, but they will have recovered by the time we play them. We need to do our very best in these two matches.”
Ancelotti said that Les Parisiens’ main objective is to reach the quarter-final stages of the competition and every game is equally important from now on.
“Our objective is to reach the quarter-finals, but every Champions League match is a tough one, especially in the last 16.”
The PSG coach added that he has abundance of experience when it comes to the European club competition and is upbeat about his side’s chances in the competition.
“I know this competition very well and I think we can win if we give it everything we've got."
