It would have been a first in France but this 31st day was fatal to the men of Luis Enrique.
They even leave the record for invincibility at FC Nantes 1994/1995, beaten after 32 games in Strasbourg. The capital's club will undoubtedly get it. He has other goals in mind, starting with the trip to Arsenal on Tuesday evening in the semi-final go to the Champions League. An appointment otherwise more anticipated by all the components of PSG, from players to management through supporters, and of course Luis Enrique. The latter also had very strong words at a press conference after the meeting.

This time, he has an opposite speech, recalling that football is not binary. “”We remain faithful to our ideas, be courageous and think of winning the semi-finals of the Champions League.The heads are already turned to the Emirates Stadium.
