This Tuesday at 9pm (broadcast on Canal+Foot in France), Paris Saint-Germain (25th) take on Bayern Munich (17th) at the Allianz Arena as part of Matchday 5 of the 2024-2025 Champions League. Bavarian coach Vincent Kompany was full of praise for the Parisian team at a press conference.
Kompany “Many players will reach the level of Messi, Neymar, Ibrahimovic in the coming years.”
“We’re going to play one of the biggest clubs in Europe. They have great individuals and a world-class coach. They’re a very talented team. A lot of players are going to reach the level of Messi, Neymar and Ibrahimovic in the years to come.
There’s never much space between the lines, and the pressing is very aggressive and good. When they have the ball, they have clear approaches. As a team, they’re really very good”, comments relayed by RMC Sport.
While some Parisian fans and soccer observers in France have a hard time understanding what is being put in place at PSG, it seems that the project is clearer for Kompany. There’s a real collective in place, and of course there’s still room for improvement.
But things are moving forward and there are some great talents who are going to grow. Of course, there are a few frustrations today. It’s important not to throw everything away, and to let the squad and the club work. Luis Enrique and his players will appreciate the Bavarian coach’s confidence.
Even if he’s not planning to give away anything tomorrow night. Bayern’s idea is to win, knowing that it will be difficult. This will be the case for both teams, although some see the Munich side winning almost comfortably.
We can’t wait for the match, it’s going to be great opposition. Let’s hope the Parisians have grown up a bit since their last game (a 1-2 defeat by Atlético Madrid), so they can be more effective.
