A Balance Between Attack and Defense Will Be Crucial

Highly ambitious, Luis Enrique did not hesitate to express his confidence ahead of this clash: “In terms of what we show, there is no team better than us.” While acknowledging the quality of the opposition, he believes Paris has what it takes to compete: “These are the two best teams in Europe.”

He also sought to ease the pressure surrounding the match: “When you play a Champions League semi-final, you don’t need to motivate… it’s the opposite, you need to calm things down.” Asked about Vincent Kompany, he was full of praise: “He is a top-level coach… I particularly like attacking coaches, and he is one of them.” Finally, regarding the pursuit of another Champions League title, his perspective has evolved: “The first time, it was a relief. Now, it’s a different story—a motivation.”
