Paris Saint-Germain is off to a mixed start to the Champions League with 4 points in 3 games.
Faced with this mixed record, coach Luis Enrique expressed concerns for the rest of the competition. The upcoming European calendar promises to be particularly tough, with crucial matches against top teams such as Atlético Madrid, Bayern Munich, and Manchester City. These shocks will be decisive for the future of PSG in C1, and Luis Enrique is aware of the challenges awaiting his team.
“Under pressure with matches against Atletico and Bayern in November? Then there will be Manchester City, Stuttgart and Salzburg… It's the most difficult calendar. We will have to be ready in order to improve and continue. But I am concerned, yes indeed,” admitted the former FC Barcelona coach at a press conference after the draw against PSV Eindhoven (1-1) this Tuesday.
“Football is capricious”
PSG provisionally occupies 17th position in the standings after the draw against PSV 1-1. “It's difficult to accept the result of such a match, but football, as we already know, is a sport that can sometimes be unfair. I think we had a very good match.”
“Throughout the match, it seemed to me that we were better than PSV Eindhoven. A lack of efficiency? We had more chances than the opponent, we deserved to win, but we couldn't get this famous decisive shot on target. We deserved a victory, but football is capricious,” analyzed the Spanish technician.
