BVB winless against PSG in the group stage
In the first game of the group phase, Dortmund acted fearfully and lost 2-0. “We weren’t happy at all,” said Terzic. The 1-1 draw in the second duel shortly before Christmas was “a completely different game” than in Paris: “We now have to top this performance again.”
The coach attributes PSG to “extraordinary quality”. “Your project for what feels like ten years has been to build a team to win the Champions League,” emphasized Terzic. PSG is currently at its “peak”. The game will be close: “But the good thing about close games is that you can win them.”
