"He
will play, I hope he plays for the good of football,
" says
Pep Guardiola
, in one of those phrases so his, when asked if he expects to see
Mbappé
in the PSG eleven this Tuesday. The Frenchman was seen
limping at the Paris airport
before leaving for
Manchester
and that, given that he drags discomfort in the right calf, immediately places the poster of doubt for the duel. But, you already know, before a meeting like this, any injury becomes less. If there is a day for
Mauricio Pochettino to take
risks with his footballers, this is it.
"One day left. We'll see if he can play, ”the Argentine cleared for his part before a duel in which PSG has the
obligation to come back
to achieve their second consecutive Champions League final. Their collapse in the second half of the first leg in Paris (1-2) puts City in a very advantageous position to play their
first European Cup final
. With the
Premier
in their pocket in the absence of one more victory to ratify it mathematically, Guardiola's team is heading towards what may be its
perfect season
, the one that finally justifies the multimillion-dollar project that Abu Dhabi launched already ago 13 years.
The Spanish coach was able to make rotations at the weekend in his league commitment against
Crystal Palace
and arrives at the match without casualties.
Pochettino, on the other hand, will not be able to count on
Gueye
- expelled in the first leg - nor on the still injured
Bernat
, apart from the aforementioned doubt of Mbappé.
If the French finally could not play, Icardi would be his replacement.
"Every Parisian must believe in us," asks
Neymar
, who is facing his great opportunity to inherit the throne of world football that
Messi and Cristiano Ronaldo
have monopolized for years
.
To do so, he must command a comeback that seems difficult against the best team in Europe this season.
