Kylian Mbappe came on in the 57th minute of the match against Bayern Munich and managed to change the face of the game for PSG, but the forward’s efforts were not rewarded on the table. Despite his side losing 1-0 at the Parc des Princes, the Frenchman is confident that qualification fortunes can change in the second leg in Germany.

Kylian Mbappe believes PSG can qualify at Bayern Munich’s home ground

Injured at the start of February, Mbappe returned earlier than expected and sent the ball past Sommer in the 82nd minute, but the shot was ruled out as Nuno Mendes (who had rounded the Frenchman) was ruled offside.

“I would have liked to have played the whole game, it’s hard to sit on the bench and watch big games like that. I did everything in my power to prepare for this game. You dream of playing in the Champions League and it’s frustrating not being able to progress.

I was surprised that Bayern dominated us so much because we are not used to it, especially at home. It’s just a goal and we can cause problems in Munich.

It is not true that without me PSG will not be able to create problems for the big teams. We are all in this together, we win together and we lose together.

Favorite in qualification? PSG, always” – Kylian Mbappequoted by Marca.

Former PSG player Kingsley Coman scored Bayern Munich’s goal in the 53rd minute.

The return match will take place on Wednesday, March 8, at the Allianz Arena in Munich. Bayern have qualified every time they have won the first leg of their Champions League Round of 16 (12 out of 12).
