01jeed36arbgc3habm8y

Germany born midfielder of Nigerian descent, Felix Nmecha, believes his Borussia Dortmund outfit has a chance of progressing to the semi-final of the UEFA Champions League.

The Black and Yellow outfit last week lost 4-0 to FC Barcelona in the first leg of their quarter-final tie in the European competition.

Despite the heavy defeat in Spain, Felix Nmecha is confident that Borussia Dortmund have what it takes to overturn the result in German.

Despite his optimism, the midfielder admits that the challenge ahead is herculean.

He has urged his Dortmund teammates to keep believing and give their all in the reverse fixture to do the unthinkable.

“We have to play a perfect game. We know it won’t be easy, but let’s not lose faith. We must be confident that we can achieve it,” Felix Nmecha said at a press conference.

The second leg of the quarter-final tie between Dortmund and Barcelona in the UEFA Champions League will be played on Tuesday, April 15.
