In statements carried out in the previous press conference to the PSG-FC Barcelona of this next Wednesday, Andrade Maxwell has ensured that the fact to happen of round against Chelsea gave them confidence, but that they will have to be entirely concentrated in defence in front of the Barcelona not to fit any goal of face to the party of turn. "We have to be very strong backwards, know to the Barça and have to be solid in defence not to fit. The party against Chelsea gave us a lot of confidence. From January are better. We play well, with a lot of intensity and this allows us have big results. It is a moment fantastic for us".

In this sense, the tactics of the Parisians against the Barça is clear: play to the against. "When it is Ibrahimovic have the possibility to have more the balloon thanks to his physicist, but always is very complicated to have to the Barcelona of rival. It is a very strong team in the possession, will have to be hard backwards and be the most effective possible in attack".

They will try, besides, not yielding too many spaces in attack to Leo Messi. "The preparation is the same that in other parties. Messi is the strongest player of the world and is complicated to defend against him in the one against one. We will try to be solid not to give spaces neither to Messi, neither to Neymar, neither to Suárez, neither neither to the others. We will try to develop our game of possession also. It is necessary to concentrate in our game".

Maxwell thinks that to play the gone in the Park of the Princes is an opportunity to give a hit of authority. "It is necessary to take advantage of the opportunity to play home the gone. As I said it before and we do not go to forget our style. We know that here in Paris are strong. It likes us the possession. But in the contrary field there will be a very strong team, difficult to beat. We will have to do the maximum to mark and not fitting so many. Therefore we have all the strength of the fans. All the city is happy to play against this team. I expect to a full stadium".

Finally, it thinks that so much the Barça like the PSG have evolved. "The Barça has always the same philosophy of the game, but there was an evolution in this team between the parties of the phase of groups and now. But in us also. We will give it everything to be able to play the semifinals".
