The final outing of Paris Saint-Germain in the club World Cup was a complete fiasco. Obviously out of breath, but above all tactically dominated by Chelsea, Luis Enrique's men were swept in the competition final (3-0). The tension was palpable after the final whistle and clashes multiplied, including one involving the Spanish coach. He quickly understood that he had made an error.
Luis Enrique apologized for long minutes later, at the post-match press conference. “My intention was to separate the players so that there are no other problems. We should all have to prevent the situation from degenerating. There was a lot of tension, pressure. »» But according to the Spanish media, he would have made his blunder much faster.
Marca was interested in a filmed sequence just after the incident, during which we see Luis Enrique send a few words to one of the members of his staff. “I'm stupid. He is there, he pushes me, I touch him and he throws himself. »» An too late awareness for the tactician who is now in the viewfinder of FIFA.
Luis Enrique financially sanctioned?
The body should logically seize the subject and take possible sanctions with regard to the protagonists involved in these hands games. According to the Spanish media, it would rather be a financial punishment which would be inflicted on Luis Enrique if he was found guilty of bad attitude.
The coach has already received the support of its president, Nasser Al-Khelaïfi, in remarks relayed by RMC.
“We have the most disciplined and respectful coach in the world. He tried to separate the ball and was jostled. You also need to have respect for your coaches. »» Anyway, the holidays are welcome for a PSG whose season is nonetheless historical for him.
