Vitinha suffered the blow after the defeat conceded on the Milan pitch (2-1) on Tuesday, during the 4th day of the Champions League.
Preferred over Lee Kang-In to support Warren Zaire-Emery and Manuel Ugarte in the midfield, Vitinha had a difficult evening against the Milan midfielders. Dominated in intensity, the Portuguese saw PSG fall apart to finally lose 2-1 on the San Siro pitch.
For the former Benfica player, the French champions gradually lost control of the match, playing into the hands of their hosts. “We knew it would be a difficult match, with the fans and everything. But that’s no excuse. We entered Milan’s game instead of playing our own. It didn’t allow us to have control of the match, he confided to the microphone of Canal+ Foot. We wanted to control the match in the second half and their second goal changed everything. Our way of playing should have remained the same, but it was difficult to find the spaces, to have the patience to score a second goal. It’s difficult to speak in the heat of the moment, but… it’s sad. »
