On Tuesday evening, an insanely intriguing UEFA Champions League semifinal series will kick off, in which Paris Saint-Germain will face FC Bayern Munich.

The first match will take place in Paris, where Bayern has already achieved victory in the first stage of the Champions League this season.

Before the match, the German club's strategist Vincent Kompany had nice words for PSG, but stated that his team is ready for this challenge.

The only advantage is that we know each other very well, but the opponents have the same advantage.

We know how to put pressure on the opponents. PSG plays excellently in all areas of the pitch, but we are prepared for that.

This is a team with a lot of quality, but the same can be said about us.

This season we have already won in Madrid and achieved victory in Paris as well. PSG is still the reigning Champions League champions, but if anyone can challenge them, it's us.

We know how good PSG is, but we will only aim for victory,” said V. Kompany at the press conference.
