PSG's head coach wants his side to give their best aginst Dortmund

The current ligue 1 winners PSG will face their most important match of the season. Luis Enrique also asked his team to move together, the Hosts PSG must also help the defense on Tuesday(06th May 2024), PSG will face Borussia Dortmund at the Parc des Princes in the second leg of the 2023/2024 Champions League semi-final. This match will not be easy for the hosts in the first leg last week, PSG was forced to suffer a 0-1 defeat when playing at Signal Iduna Park. PSG's star striker Kylian Mbappe's performance was not up to the mark as a result Dortmund played better and deserved to win.

Luckily, a one-goal deficit shouldn't be too difficult for PSG now they have the opportunity to play 90 minutes at home to turn the situation around. Recently, in the press conference session before the match, Enrique was asked about how he could help Mbappe play better. Indeed, in the first leg, Mbappe's game was not very visible. Interestingly, Enrique emphasized that star players like Mbappe must also move to help the team as a whole, including in defensive duties. "We played as a team, we asked the attackers to make sure that only a few balls reached the defense," said Enrique. "We are a team and every player has their role. Even the world's top star [Mbappe] has to help in defense."

Enrique usually speaks through a translator at press conferences. However, this time the Spanish coach made a surprise by saying one sentence in French that showed the team's ambition. "There is only one sentence I know in French, 'on va gagner', we will win," continued Enrique. "I like that sentence and I always believe my team will win, that's why I dare to say it," he concluded.
