PSG coach praises team after reaching new final: 'A pleasure to watch'

Paris Saint-Germain's coach, Luis Enrique, lauded his team's performance following their advancement to the Champions League final. The French giants secured their spot by overcoming Bayern Munich in a hard-fought second leg on German soil. Enrique emphasized the team's demonstrated maturity and their dual capability in both defending and attacking, stating it was a 'pleasure to watch' their performance.

While PSG has been known for its attacking flair in recent years, this particular match showcased a different facet of their game. After a high-scoring first leg in Paris, which PSG won 5-4, the team adopted a more defensive strategy in Munich. Ousmane Dembélé's early goal set the tone, and the team defended resolutely throughout the match, ultimately holding off Bayern's late equalizer to secure their place in the final.

I aften viste vi, hvilken type hold vi er. Vi viste vores modenhed og evne til både at forsvare og angribe. Som træner var det en fornøjelse at se den præstation

This achievement marks PSG's second consecutive Champions League final appearance, a feat not seen since Liverpool in 2019. The club now has the opportunity to become the second team in Champions League history to successfully defend their title, a feat previously accomplished only by Real Madrid. The final is set to take place on May 30th in Budapest against Arsenal.

Vi kan ikke altid vinde med magi eller ekstraordinært spil. I dag måtte vi forsvare meget, men vi forsvarede virkelig godt
