Lacking success against Dortmund on Tuesday in the semi-final return of the Champions League (0-1), PSG hit the uprights four times.
«When you’re good, it doesn’t hit the post, it goes in.” Kylian Mbappé did not look for false excuses to explain the elimination of PSG on Tuesday evening in the semi-final of the Champions League against BVB (0-1). The Parisian striker, who hit the bar at the end of the match, just like Vitinha just after him, or two posts from Zaire-Emery and Mendes in the second half, recognized his team’s lack of success.
«IMHO I think they were superior in both surfaces, he explains without hiding. Afterwards everyone will do their analyses, but the truth is that they came to us once or twice and scored, we often came into their area, without managing to score. This is an implacable observation. Today (Tuesday), we were not good enough in a sector where we were expected, the offensive ones.»
Luis Enrique does not say the same thing as Mbappé
A speech which counterbalances somewhat with that of Luis Enrique. “We were unluckyhe said Tuesday evening at a press conference. If you tell me it’s a question of bad luck, but this question is weird. Without taking any credit away from Dortmund, who finished first in our group, the team that had bad luck in both matches was PSG.»
The bad luck described by the Parisian coach should not mask glaring shortcomings on the part of the Parisians. A disastrous first half with a game that was far too academic, seen on Tuesday evening for example. Executives not at the event. A midfielder, apart from Vitinha, who did not have the level of a C1 half. A defense that is too insecure. And 31 shots on target without scoring a goal. Bad luck?
