In their Champions League last 16 first leg on Wednesday, Paris St. Germain will try to dominate Liverpool to escape their ‘fighter jets’.
PSG started the season poorly but won 18 of their last 20 competitive matches in late 2024, drawing two. French team has scored 21 goals in last four games and qualified for Champions League playoffs with a 10-0 aggregate win over Ligue 1 club Stade Brestois.
PSG coach Luis Enrique calls Liverpool a’source of motivation’ because they face one of Europe’s best teams.
It will be intense. It’s one of Europe’s finest matches on paper. “They’re a top counter-attacking team,” Luis Enrique said Tuesday at a press conference.
Protecting ourselves from their shifts is crucial. It’s hard to stop three fighter jets if we don’t play our game. The Spanish coach intimated that PSG will be dangerous if they dominate possession, but he would not specify specific areas they are superior against Liverpool.
