Di Maria: I won't celebrate against Madrid

Paris Saint-Germain attacker Angel di Maria promised not to celebrate if he scores against former club Real Madrid in the Champions League.

The Ligue 1 leaders host Madrid at the Parc des Princes on Wednesday in a clash between two teams with perfect records in Group A.

"If ever I score a goal, I will not celebrate," the Argentinian told Canal+. 

"Because deep in my heart I will never forget what I experienced at Real."

The 27-year-old believes Laurent Blanc's men have the quality to challenge European powerhouses.

"We will fight together to win the Champions League," Di Maria said.

"Upon my arrival, I noticed the high quality of Parisian players. With the players we have, we can do it."
