No team in the world has ever overturned a 4-0 deficit after the first leg of a tie, but Barcelona's players and coach seem to be eager to become the first club to do so.
Speaking at Tuesday's press conference, Spanish coach Luis Enrique referred to his team's chances of success against PSG, even if most experts have ruled them out of the competition.
"We're halfway through the tie. We have nothing to lose and we have lots to win. If a team like PSG was able to score four goals, then we are capable of scoring six," Luis Enrique stated confidently.
Luis Enrique's crew has only allowed three goals in four games following their disastrous performance on Valentine's Day.

Former Real Madrid players have stated that Barcelona doesn't have what it takes to bounce back from such a heavy scoreline. Luis Enrique did not forget about them and took a slight dig at Los Blancos' ability to come from behind and win crucial games.
You have to be a professional and admit that this sport can put you in scenarios such as this one. There's a reason why this team has never needed to come from behind. This is a big challenge for us,"the coach added.
The former Celta Vigo boss revealed that he's never doubted his team's chances of success, even if they have to play almost perfectly to avoid elimination.
"Ever since the other game ended three weeks ago, I've always believed we will be close to beat them at some point. If we reach that moment, our morale will be on the rise, which will not be the case with our opponents. That's all I know. Making history? Honestly, I don't care,"the manager concluded.
