Luis Enrique had warned. He, the Spaniard, could not take a trip to San Mames lightly, the bustling lair of Athletic Bilbao where so many teams have foundered. He warned and his players noted that the difficulty was there at the heart of a delicate first period, where the opposing aggressiveness prevented them from developing their game. It was better in the second half, with chances, but no efficiency, to the great displeasure of Vitinha.
Asked by Canal+Luis Enrique delivered his analysis of the meeting. “It was a close match, very difficult, especially the first half but I think we deserved the victory. We created very clear chances, we could have won this match”he first declared.
Luis Enrique thinks he needs 3 points
He then returned to the atmosphere and the pressure put on by Bilbao. “Of course, it was important and I think we started the match well but with a lot of difficulty. We thought that in the second half, they would be reduced and we took advantage of it to create real chances but it wasn’t enough to win. » But above all, Luis Enrique refused to panic for the future, with another trip to Sporting then the reception of Newcastle.
“I think we are in a very good moment, we have our mentality, I am confident. It’s a shame this result because the group is tight and a lot of points will be needed. We have to win at least one more match.”he calculated. With 13 points, PSG is 3rd in the standings, and can logically hope to finish the league phase in the top 8, or even better.
