The day after the draw for the quarter-finals of the Champions League, Luis Enrique presented himself at a press conference this Saturday, early in the afternoon. The Spanish technician will return to FC Barcelona, which he coached between 2014 and 2017.
“I am happy, very happy, back home, declared the Paris Saint-Germain coach. These are teams that have faced each other several times. We were lucky, we returned to Spain. Barcelona is the city where I spent part of my sporting career. It’s a city where I feel good. It’s good news. »
The comeback “was of no use”
Luis Enrique was Barça’s coach during the now famous comeback of March 8, 2017. “It was of no use unfortunately. We were knocked out by Juventus behind, so it wasn’t the most special match of my career. PSG won 4-0 in Barcelona. I am remembered for the comeback, but we were between life and death 15 days before. Then, the outlook changed”he remembered.
And the former coach concluded about this double confrontation that remains in the memory: “I remember the 4-0 and the 6-1. It’s part of history, I’m very proud of it. I won’t change anything about my career. I probably could have done a lot better, but I gave my best. I will try to be 100% so that PSG passes this round, and the others.”
