PARIS (Reuters) - Kylian Mbappe said he was confident Paris St Germain could advance into the quarter-finals of the Champions League despite losing 1-0 to Bayern Munich in the first leg of their last-16 clash on Tuesday.
The France forward came on as a substitute in the 57th minute and ignited the game, having two goals disallowed for offside as his entrance changed the storyline of the match.
Mbappe's return to fitness is PSG's best hope looking ahead to the March 8 second leg at the Allianz Arena. "We saw that when we are all together we are able to play forward, to play attacking football and that they were not comfortable."
