Paris Saint-Germain right-back Achraf Hakimi said on Monday that the second leg of the quarter-final against Barcelona is the time to "give everything and give your all" to try to come back from the 2-3 defeat in the first leg.
Speaking at a press conference at the Stade Olimpic Lluís Companys, the Morocco international, who missed the first leg through suspension, said the Parisians had worked well over the last few days to win the game.
The former Real Madrid and Inter Milan player has a clear recipe for turning the tie around: "We have the style of play that the coach asked of us from the start. We have to create a lot of chances and score goals".
He praised Luis Enrique's "super-clear" ideas for the game, who, he said, always wants to "dominate every game, keep possession and not be in a hurry when attacking".
On one of the protagonists of the tie, Kylian Mbappe, who failed to score in the first leg, Hakimi said he is "very motivated, like the whole team".
