As we approach a new Champions League final, Paris Saint-Germain is moving forward with a strong argument on its bench. By dominating Bayern Munich at the end of a spectacular and controlled double confrontation in key moments, the Parisians validated their ticket to Budapest with the sensation of a team that has reached maturity. And in this context, the presence of Luis Enrique takes on a particular dimension. The Spanish coach has built a formidable reputation in major events, with 14 victories in 15 finals played in a dry club match. A figure that says a lot about his ability to prepare for and win this type of event.
Facing Arsenal in the final, another element reinforces Parisian optimism. Luis Enrique is flawless in the Champions League knockout phase against English clubs, with seven matches won on the bench. A statistic that necessarily resonates when challenging a Premier League representative for the title. Continuing the solidity displayed against Bayern, these data provide a clear trend. PSG is not only presenting itself as reigning champion, but with a coach whose history in these contexts promises to be very heavy.
