Faced with the low block of the Stade de Reims, PSG could not do better than a draw on their lawn (1-1). A sharing of points which is seen as a victory by the Champenois.
Between two crucial meetings of Champions Leaguethe PSG had to negotiate his meeting with the 19th day of Ligue 1 facing the
Reims stadium. With a reshuffled but offensive eleven, the players of Luis Enrique came up against a very defensive Reims team who refused the game.
“We are happy with the point, but especially with the battle”
And this point of the draw is seen as a great satisfaction by the coach Luka Elsnerin comments reported by The Team.
“We can have regrets after each match but succeed in countering the project of PSGit's an excellent thing. We succeeded in our match, especially since we came back after being behind. We are happy with the point, but especially with the battle. It took heart and discipline. Did he expect an offensive composition from PSG ? Seeing that, we said to ourselves that it was good on their part, but we were able to respond with a lot of density in the midfield. It worked quite well but that's to the players' credit. It's not easy to finish with 22-23% possession and come out with a good match (…) I loved the moment when at 0-1, in ten minutes, we managed to put a little pressure on the
PSG. »
While this meeting in front of Reims stadium was placed between two matches of Champions League, Luka Elsner believes that there has never been a better time to face the PSG : “I'm not sure there's a great time to face the PSG. They have a super complete squad and then there is a new arrival (Khvicha Kvaratskhelia) who brought energy to their team. »
