One step from the final, all teams dream of winning the UEFA Champions League, the biggest European football competition. Title holders, Manchester City were eliminated in the quarter-final by Real Madrid. On Tuesday, the Madrilenians snatched a draw against Bayern Munich, 2-2. On Wednesday, it was Paris SG’s turn to play their UEFA Champions League semi-final against Dortmund. In Germany, it was the locals who won, 1-0. Niclas Füllkrug was the scorer for Dortmund, in the 36th minute of play following a questionable alignment by the Parisian defense. It’s a double blow for Paris SG who also lost their defender Lucas Hernandez to injury on the same occasion. It was a lively match that we witnessed. Both clubs could have scored more goals. The Germans notably missed a big opportunity following an outburst from the untenable Jadon Sancho. But the Parisians were also not varnished, as evidenced by these two consecutive posts that they found in the second half. Ousmane Dembélé also missed a big opportunity in the second half, with a shot well over the top when he was alone in the axis of the goal, in the opponent’s penalty area. Now, it’s time for the return, Tuesday May 7, after a week of rest for the Parisians who did not play in the championship this weekend.
Paris SG is under pressure
Tossed around at Signal Iduna Park, Paris SG begins the return match at home with a one-goal deficit. A gap far from insurmountable for the capital club but for that, the Parisian attacking trio will have to perform better than in the first leg. Despite the statistical domination (58% ball possession, 583 passes made against 426), Luis Enrique’s players were clumsy in front of goals: only 3 shots on target out of a total of 14 shots. Too poor a record at this stage of the competition. Ousmane Dembélé and Bradley Barcola did not shine against Dortmund’s full-backs. To see the final, the two Parisian wingers will have to repeat the performances produced in recent weeks. The same goes for Kylian Mbappé who nevertheless remains the number one offensive asset of this team, he who is the top scorer in Ligue 1 Uber Eats and the UEFA Champions League. What about the management of Luis Enrique, who brings in Randal Kolo Muani losing confidence, while he has Gonçalo Ramos performing impressively on the bench? Verdict this Tuesday, May 7, at the Parc des Princes, with kick-off scheduled for 9 p.m.
