PSG’s future opponent in the round of 16 of the Champions League (on RMC Sport), Real Sociedad coach Imanol Alguacil wants to build on what his team has shown since the start of the season, particularly against at Inter, to create a surprise.
It takes more to scare him. Asked this Wednesday about the Champions League draw which will pit his Real Sociedad against PSG in the round of 16, the coach of the Basque team Imanol Alguacil was not particularly worried. He approaches this double meeting (February 14 and March 5, on RMC Sport) with “a lot of enthusiasm and respect”, and at the same time with “humility and desire”.

“I learned about the draw after returning from training. I am happy and excited. To reach the final you have to play against the best. PSG is a serious candidate to reach the final. They have a coach (Luis Enrique ) for whom I have a lot of respect, he knows us very well and we know him. It can’t be better. Imagine the bomb that it would be to eliminate PSG,” he said in reported comments by the daily Marca.
“Why not ?”
And to continue his reflection: “If we are able to play at the same level as against Inter Milan, who were not able to beat us, neither here nor at Giuseppe Meazza (1-1 and 0-0) … Why not do it against PSG?” He concluded with a parallel with the 2019-2020 season and Real Sociedad’s victory in the Copa del Rey. “We had to face Real Madrid (4-3 victory in the quarters). If you want to reach the final, you have to face the best…”
Ultimately, his only concern concerns the movement of supporters to the Parc des Princes and San Sebastian. “I hope there won’t be any problems. It’s already a shame for the fans to have to hide their away jerseys… I hope there will be a good atmosphere, here and there .”
