Goretzka fired up for Bayern vs PSG after brace

Leon Goretzka declared himself fired up for Wednesday's Champions League return leg against PSG after scoring a Bundesliga brace for Bayern Munich.

Bayern Munich's record-breaking season continues as the German champions refuse to give up, coming back from a 3-0 halftime deficit to win 4-3 against Mainz. In the Champions League, Bayern didn't allow a 5-2 PSG lead to demoralize them, with Goretzka scoring twice in recent matches.

The 31-year-old, who will depart Bayern after eight seasons at season's end, hopes to complete a "triple-crown" campaign. "That's our focus from now on," Goretzka told DAZN. "I'm really excited; I think things are going to be on fire here on Wednesday." With Bayern trailing 2-5 from the first leg, Goretzka and his teammates aim to complete the historic comeback to reach the Champions League Final. tbzikra.com
