PSG goes into the second leg looking to overturn a 2-3 deficit from the first leg. Whilst this will be a relatively tall order it is a more than doable task given the quality of players PSG have at their disposal.

Here at PSG Post, we will discuss the necessary amendments PSG needs to make to give themselves the best chance of progressing to the semi-finals.

Move Kylian Mbappe centrally

Mbappe did not play to the best of his ability on Wednesday night. He had zero shots on target, zero assists, won 25% of his duels, and lost the ball 13 times as he was completely neutralized by Barcelona's backline.

The Frenchman constantly roamed in the offside zone and was always isolated from danger. Luis Enrique should consider playing Mbappe centrally for the second leg as he may pose more of a problem as the striker and Barcelona's center-backs will be unable to double up on him.
