Real Madrid midfielder Luka Modric expects the home fans to be a factor against PSG,
Real need to overturn a 1-0 deficit on Wednesday night to reach the Champions League quarterfinals.
Modric said, “I’m sure that the Bernabéu will have a really important role to play for us because playing here at home means a great deal. It’ll be a great game.
“We’ve played many of these games and the fans’ support will be really important because we’re going to need all of their help, just as we did against Real Sociedad and they will spur us on to give even more when it gets tough out there, just as they always have done in these big games.
“Every game is different. The important thing is that we go out and try and do what the coach asks of us. The most important thing is that we go out there and show the character, good energy and aggression that we produced against Real Sociedad. If we manage to do that, we’ll be in with a very good chance of getting through the tie. We’ll have to give our all.”
Modric also said: “There is big pressure on both teams. Both of us want to get through. They’re keen to win the Champions League and are yet to have done so, which speaks volumes of just how tough it is.
“We won it four times in five years and made it look easy and as if it was normal, but that’s far from being the case. There’s a lot at stake for both teams. We’re both great sides. We’re the best club in the history of the game and are always under pressure, no matter what the competition, because we always want to win.”
