Paris Saint-Germain manager Luis Enrique expressed satisfaction with his team’s disciplined performance in their 1-0 win over Arsenal in the first leg of the Champions League semi-final.
The match, held at the Emirates Stadium, saw PSG adopt a more pragmatic approach, focusing more on teamwork and defensive solidity over their usual flair
Ousmane Dembélé scored the decisive goal early in the match, capitalising on a well-executed team move. However, Dembélé later suffered a hamstring injury, casting doubt on his availability for the second leg.
Enrique addressed the injury, stating, “It’s not serious, but he might be a doubt for the return match”.
Enrique praised his team’s collective effort, highlighting their high pressing and defensive organisation.
He emphasized the importance of maintaining focus for the second leg in Paris, acknowledging Arsenal’s potential to overturn the deficit. “We must not underestimate Arsenal. Any goal can change the tie,” he warned.
