Istanbul (AP) - RB Leipzig playmaker Emil Forsberg firmly believes in reaching the round of 16 in the Champions League despite the challenging situation.
Before the game at Istanbul Basaksehir on Wednesday (6.55 p.m. / DAZN), the Swedish national soccer player highlighted the strengths of the Saxons.
«We have to play courageously and believe in ourselves.
Then anything is possible.
We're going there to win, ”Forsberg told the German press agency.
If Leipzig wins in Istanbul and a week later against Manchester United, the team can reach the knockout round on their own.
However, Forsberg also warned against underestimating the Turks after the sovereign success from the first leg.
«It won't be an easy game.
Istanbul has a lot of quality, you saw that against us.
They also beat Manchester United at home, ”said the 29-year-old.
«We still have a good chance of getting ahead.
Of course we have to win both games.
We bring a lot of positive things with us and want to win in Istanbul. "
