<h2><strong>Mbappe confident of PSG progress</strong></h2>

<p>"We're&nbsp;confident that&nbsp;we'll&nbsp;come back from that score and reach the final,"&nbsp;Mbappé said&nbsp;at a&nbsp;children's&nbsp;event ahead of the second leg in Paris.&nbsp;</p>

<p>"There's&nbsp;a lot of pressure, which is&nbsp;normal&nbsp;because&nbsp;there's&nbsp;a place in the Champions League final at stake, which is very important.&nbsp;Especially&nbsp;when you consider the&nbsp;club's&nbsp;record in the competition.</p>

<p>"We're&nbsp;aware&nbsp;of&nbsp;the&nbsp;pressure,&nbsp;but&nbsp;the&nbsp;group&nbsp;is&nbsp;extremely&nbsp;calm.&nbsp;We're&nbsp;confident&nbsp;that&nbsp;we'll&nbsp;<br />
come&nbsp;back&nbsp;from that score and reach the final."</p>

<p>"I've&nbsp;often had the same warning from the children.&nbsp;I've&nbsp;heard a lot of&nbsp;'You've&nbsp;got to win!'&nbsp;And&nbsp; they're&nbsp;right, we&nbsp;have to win.”</p>

<p>Like the quarterfinal second leg, PSG will walk into the semifinal second leg with a task in hand&nbsp;having&nbsp;trailed Barcelona 3-2. However, they did manage to beat the Spanish side 4-1 to advance into the semis and will be hoping for the same.&nbsp;</p>

<h2><strong>Mbappe leads from&nbsp;front</strong></h2>

<p>Striker Kylian Mbappe is in red-hot form for PSG&nbsp;having&nbsp;scored&nbsp;eight goals in the competition,&nbsp;level&nbsp;with Bayern&nbsp;Munich’s&nbsp;Harry Kane for most goals scored in the 2023-24 Champions League.&nbsp;Despite confirming&nbsp;of&nbsp;his desire to leave PSG earlier, Mappe will look to end his stint with the side on a positive note with a likely treble in sight.&nbsp;</p>

<p>PSG have already won the French Ligue title and are in the final of the Coup de&nbsp;France&nbsp; where they play Lyon in the final. A place in the Champions League final will see them on course for the&nbsp;side’s&nbsp;first-ever European treble.&nbsp;</p>
