PARIS : Paris St Germain lost the Champions League semi-final first leg 1-0 to Borussia Dortmund, but that doesn't mean they will go all out to score twice in the return game, manager Luis Enrique said on Monday.

The Ligue 1 champions overturned a one goal deficit against Barcelona in the quarter-finals, winning 4-1 in the second leg, but PSG are prepared to take the game with Borussia to extra time if that is what is needed. The manager wants his side concentrated on all aspects of their game, not only in attack, and a goal from the Germans won't be the end of the world."We have to be 100 per cent focused on attack and defence. If we concede a goal, it is not serious, we have to stay calm. If we score twice very quickly, our opponents will have to react.
PSG have home advantage for the second leg, and Luis Enrique has no doubt that the Parc des Princes will once again be a driving force for his team.
