With its new setback in the Champions League, PSG further complicates its chances of qualifying for the next round of the competition.
The PSG never seemed able to bring back the three points from his trip to Munich. Opposed to Bayern this Tuesday, the Rouge & Bleu logically lost. Already in a difficult situation before this meeting, the Parisian club is approaching the precipice with this 26th place, outside the qualifying places for the play-offs. To hope to reach this next round, we will have to win at least twice in the last three matches (RB Salzburg, Manchester City et
Stuttgart).
Neuer completed more dribbles than Dembélé and Barcola
This Tuesday evening at l’Allianz Arena,
Luis Enrique once again surprised everyone with the tenure of Matvey Safonov
in the cages but above all with a new tactical organization in 4-4-2 diamond and a midfield supposed to be reinforced with the presence of Fabian Ruiz. But that did not prevent the Spanish technician from experiencing a new setback in C1. Since his arrival at the Rouge & Bleu, the 54-year-old coach has won only 6 matches out of his 17 matches played in
Champions Leaguefor a winning percentage of 35.29%. This Tuesday, he became the first coach of the era QSI to have experienced the most defeats in the competition (8 in 17 matches), as reported
RMC
Sport. He thus broke the record of Laurent Blancwho had experienced 7 losses over a longer period (in 30 matches, between 2013 and 2016). “The Spanish technician also has the highest defeat ratio (47%) of
Paris in the competition. » Another worrying figure, the PSG suffered his 6th defeat in
Champions League in 2024, a first in the club's history over a calendar year.
In this meeting facing the Bayern Munichthe
PSG this time will not be able to hide behind its inefficiency with 0.77xG compared to 2.41xG for the Bavarians. Worse still, another statistic confirms the lack of creativity and the absence of danger of this Parisian team. The guardian
Manuel Neuer completed more dribbles (1) than both attackers Ousmane Dembélé et Bradley
Barcolawho achieved none. Likewise for
Warren Zaire-Emery et Fabian
Ruiz. The best Parisian dribbler was
Nuno Mendes with five successful dribbles. With only 4 points after 5 matches played and a 26th place, the
PSG will be obliged to win their next match against the RB Salzburg in two weeks, on December 10, to restore hope of qualifying for the play-offs.
