Kingsley Coman is preparing to play a special match on Sunday in the Champions League final. The Bayern Munich striker, trained at PSG, finds his first club with a little emotion but above all a lot of ambitions. Even if he has a good chance of starting the meeting on the bench, the 24-year-old dreams of winning the most prestigious European Cup for the first time. "It's in the DNA of the club which has already won everything but always wants more," explains the French international in a video conference from his hotel in Lisbon on Thursday. We showed that character again against Barcelona. Even after scoring 5 or 6 goals, we kept pressing. "
The demonstration against Barça (8-2), however, gave way to a game a little more hooked against Lyon in the semi-final (3-0). A match that Coman sees as a warning. “Barcelona are a team that plays, it suits us better,” he analyzes. Lyon played against and we had a little more trouble this season against this type of team. "With the best defense in the competition (5 goals conceded in ten games) and an attack from Neymar, Di Maria and Mbappé, PSG therefore seems to have arguments against the German champions. “It will be an open match, cut the former striker of Juventus Turin. We will have to defend all together and not leave them easy spaces or balls. We have the weapons for that. "
"My heart is 100% Bayern"
From the top of its five successes in the Champions League, Bayern Munich celebrated in a very sober way its qualification for the final. Quite the opposite of the Parisian celebrations considered a little too exuberant on the other side of the Rhine. “It has not been easy for them in recent years but this competition is not easy for anyone, deflates Coman. They were struggling to get through the quarters, this year they are in the final. We were very happy after Lyon. We have already made several semi-finals, we are preparing the real celebration for the final. If we win it. "
After the qualification against Lyon, the French international (22 caps) had no sentimentalism when talking about his former club. “It's a beautiful poster. During the match there will be no bets or not. My heart is 100% Bayern. "
