Wednesday evening, during the Champions League semi-final return between Bayern Munich and PSG, Matveï Safonov again produced a solid performance. And this, despite several clearances made directly into touch.
According to RMC Sportit would not be about mistakes made by the Russian goalkeeper. He would have just respected an instruction given by Luis Enrique, in order to put pressure on the camp of the German club. However, Christophe Dugarry seems more than skeptical about this information.
“I don’t believe it for a single second. He aims at one side, then he is clumsy… So the great Luis Enrique, his tactic would be to send the balls into touch? That’s great, he’s taking up rugby then! I want us to put pressure on the sides to annoy the opponent, but what is the point of doing that? “, asked the sports consultant on RMC.
Luis Enrique, Dugarry criticizes him again
The 1998 world champion regularly criticizes the coach of the capital club. An antagonism that dates back to the time when the two men were teammates in the Barça jersey. It was during the first part of the 1997-1998 season, during which the French striker spent a few months with the Blaugrana.
“It was indeed a request from Luis Enrique, replied Benoît Costil. It may seem surprising to throw the ball like that and give it to the opponent. When the ball goes straight into touch five, six, seven times, I tell myself that it’s not a foot problem. It’s just an instruction. » We’ll see if it will be the same for the final against Arsenal on May 30.
