Paris Saint-Germain booked their place in the Champions League final after a masterful double-header against Arsenal. Praised by Arsène Wenger on beIN SPORTS for their tactical superiority and realism, PSG adapted well to win at home (2-1), five years after their last final. The Parisians face Inter Milan in Munich on May 31, buoyed by their impressive momentum and near-perfect season.
Wenger “They had more chances and were never really in danger”
“I’d say the Parisians were better than Arsenal in both matches. They had more chances and were never really in danger, even if this (Wednesday) evening we saw a different PSG,” defended Wenger.
This PSG wasn’t guided by possession, but by a style of soccer that was above all about not conceding goals and stinging on the counter-attack. That led them to success.
PSG now know how to stop losing games, how to keep their backs to the wall. Paris knows how to adapt. Because today, to win the LDC, you need a team capable of dealing with a variety of situations. What’s incredible is that this team can be perfected and that this season will serve as an experience for the future, to better manage future events.
PSG are one of the best teams in Europe, and not just this season. Often criticized for their lack of realism in both areas, when the great Real Madrid was praised for its “clinical” side, we must salute this adaptable, consistent and fundamentally solid PSG.
