Dortmund Coach Terzic Acknowledges PSG's Champions League Ambitions

Borussia Dortmund coach Edin Terzic has recognized Paris Saint-Germain's strong desire to win the Champions League ahead of their semi-final clash. Terzic highlighted PSG's long-standing objective of European success since being acquired by Qatar Sports Investments, emphasizing their decade-long pursuit of the prestigious trophy.

Despite PSG's recent dominance in Ligue 1, with their 10th league title in 12 seasons, their European campaign has yet to yield the desired results. The French giants suffered a defeat in the 2020 final against Bayern Munich, intensifying their determination to claim the Champions League crown.

Dortmund, the 1997 Champions League winners, are gearing up for their fifth semi-final appearance in club history, aiming to make a mark after their last final defeat to Bayern in 2013. Terzic praised PSG's attacking prowess, singling out Kylian Mbappe while acknowledging the threat posed by the entire PSG squad.

Reflecting on Dortmund's journey to the semi-finals, Terzic emphasized the team's resilience and hunger for success. Despite potentially being labeled as underdogs against PSG due to their relative lack of experience, Terzic believes in Dortmund's ability to seize the opportunity and make a statement in the competition.

With key players like Marcel Sabitzer and Sebastien Haller expected to be fit for the crucial clash, Dortmund is poised to give their all in pursuit of a spot in the Champions League final. Terzic's strategic approach and confidence in his team's capabilities set the stage for an intriguing showdown between two ambitious sides vying for European glory.
