Under pressure in the Champions League after a complicated first half in terms of results, Paris Saint-Germain will approach their trip to Bayern Munich with a certain confidence after their victory in L1 against Toulouse.
The capital club continues to advance in the French championship. Still undefeated, PSG remains on five consecutive victories in L1. Already a solid leader with six points ahead of its first pursuer, Monaco, Paris can now fully concentrate on its important deadlines in the Champions League. Starting with a perilous trip to the Bayern Munich pitch on Tuesday evening. With their backs against the wall and placed outside the qualified zone, with only four points in as many days, PSG must win in Germany to continue to believe in the Top 8. But will Paris approach this match with confidence after being moved a little by Toulouse in Ligue 1 on Friday? Luis Enrique believes yes, knowing that his PSG cannot show its best face every three days, and particularly after the international break.
“You have to go to Cirque du Soleil to see something exceptional”
“Given the circumstances, with the desire to give minutes to those who play less and rest to those who play a lot, I can say that our objectives were accomplished against Téfécé. And who plays 38 or 60 games brilliantly in a year? Person. We will not be the first to do so. This match against Toulouse is nothing like the one in Munich. It is impossible to compare the two meetings. You say that the evening starters will start again on Tuesday… How many do you think there will be? You have to go to Cirque du Soleil to see something exceptional. I think we played a very complete match, very good. Many players who have started don't have many minutes to get their teeth into this season. It was a very difficult match from the start. We were up to the task, without being brilliant. But we expected this. Bayern won 3-0, so we will arrive with the same level of confidence on Tuesday. It's important to arrive having won. It’s not decisive, but it’s good”launched the PSG coach to the media, who accepts that his team is not always at the top in L1 to aim higher a few days later in C1. To be confirmed on Tuesday at the Allianz Arena.
