Tottenham fullback Aurier: My PSG brothers can stun Real Madrid

Tottenham fullback Serge Aurier is backing former club PSG to fight back against Real Madrid tonight.

Real are in Paris tonight to defend a 3-1 aggregate lead for the second-leg of their Champions League round of 16 tie.

Aurier told SFR Sport: "If Paris can do it against Real Madrid? I hope so. I still support PSG, I'm still watching all their games. I have friends there that I consider like brothers.

"The first leg was less controlled despite a good start and chances. But at the Park, it's hard to overthrow a team like Paris. We did it against Barça last season at home. There is a good chance of qualifying if everyone is together.

"The absence of Neymar? I really hope they will fight for him. You have to show that a collective is stronger than one player. It would be nice to win for him too. He deserves it with all he has done since he arrived."
