Despite the 2-0 defeat conceded on the lawn of the Parc des Princes, Mikel Merino wants to believe in a turnaround in the return match at Anoeta.

Real Sociedad may harbor regrets after their 2-0 defeat in the first leg of the Champions League round of 16 against PSG. Dominant in the first period, the Basque club was unable to consolidate its control over the match.

The second half had a completely different character and the Parisians did not take long to find the fault, quickly doubling the lead. Real Sociedad is condemned to the feat on the return but Mikel Merino, who found the crossbar in the first half, wants to believe in qualification.

“We are satisfied with the work carried out. With our audience and all the energy in the world, we can beat them. With their players in front, they are strong on transitions, but in the first half, we dominated. We are optimistic. Two goals is nothing. We have options, but we have to score the goals we haven’t missed recently.”he told Canal+ at the end of the meeting.
