After a huge fear lived Tuesday evening on the lawn of Aston Villa, Paris Saint-Germain still managed to tear off its ticket for the semi-finals of the Champions League. From now on, Luis Enrique's men are waiting to know if they will face Arsenal or Real Madrid the next round. While waiting for the Gunners and the Merengues to end their duel this Wednesday, some lean for an opposition between Paris and Madrid.
Former goalkeeper of Paris Saint-Germain, Jérôme Alonzo would like to see the Real Madrid of Kylian Mbappé come rub in Ousmane Dembélé and others. This is what he said on the set of the L'Equipe chain when making his choice. “If we talk about football, I prefer to play Real a thousand times with its flaws, even if it is Real with everything around. »»
But the fact is that at the start of the quarter -final return that the Merengue play against Arsenal, they are three goals late. Suffice to say that a reversal of the situation seems very unlikely. And if there was a miracle, then it would not necessarily be very good omen for PSG. If Madrid managed to prevail and qualify, he would be completely transcended by this new feat.
Not famous against Real and Arsenal in C1
It is therefore rather against Arsenal that Paris must expect to play. In history, PSG statistics in the face of these two clubs are not good. Faced with Real, it is only 25% of victories with two successes in C1 for two draws and four defeats. Against Arsenal, it is even worse since PSG never won with two draws and a defeat on the clock.
It remains to wait. Luis Enrique will have any work to put his players in the best conditions and try to reach the second Champions League final in the history of Paris Saint-Germain. But all this is still far away.
