Paris Saint Germain coach, Luis Enrique, spoke at a press conference after his team’s defeat and elimination in the UEFA Champions League semi-final against Borussia Dortmund.
The Germans have been able to achieve their goal-scoring opportunity, which led them to take a narrow lead on the scoreboard in both the first leg and the second leg of this match, while PSG has not had its aim sharpened, as it has had chances very clear to be able to tie the match, however, they did not know how to convert those opportunities into goals.
The Paris Saint Germain coach spoke in the “flash interview” and congratulated the rival team for having obtained a direct pass to the Champions League final.
Likewise, the coach expressed his sadness for this elimination and, above all, for the way in which it happened.
“We are not the best at set pieces, but we can generate 30 SHOTS.”
“FOOTBALL has NOT been FAIR.”

““They have competed very well. We have scored six goals in the tie, today we have made 31 shots on goal, an expectation of 3 and not a single goal, they have 0.7 and they have scored, it seems impossible to believe. This is football, we accept it and prepare for the next one.”
– Luis Enrique
In this sense, he referred to the bad luck of the French team due to the balls that hit the post with a somewhat metaphorical question: “What does the difference between hitting the post or having it go in depend on? Of the Holy Spirit, who was passing by there?

Finally, Luis Enrique assured that his team was not inferior in either of the two games. Regarding the possibilities of having underestimated Borussia Dortmund, he said that “It is the maximum competition, no one had ruled out or undervalued the rival, especially those of us who know about football.”
