After Sporting defeat, Luis Suárez reveals how to beat PSG: We have to... | OneFootball

Luis Suárez was one of the Sporting players called to make statements in the aftermath of the 3-1 defeat against Bayern Munich. The Colombian international ended up lamenting the result, which in his opinion was decided on set pieces.

"We knew we had to be very strong in defense. In the first half, I think they created few opportunities for the talent they have. In the second half, we entered with the same mentality. We knew that on a counterattack we could score, and we did. I think the game was decided on small details, which cost us the first goal. After that, they took control of the game," he began by saying, in statements to Sport TV.

When asked about the plays in question, Luis Suárez did not hesitate: "Yes, we worked a lot on those plays. At the beginning of the season, we also conceded some goals from set pieces. In the meantime, we improved, but today we made it easy on the small details again, and that cost us the game".

In conclusion, the Sporting forward set his sights on the duel against PSG, the next opponent for the Lions in the Champions League lineup: "I think we are a tough team for both PSG and Bayern Munich. We just have to know how to approach each game. Despite the defeat, we have to keep our heads up because of the work we did. We were ahead on the scoreboard, we were close to achieving something beautiful. At home, with our fans, we can achieve something much better".

With this defeat – the fourth in 23 matches this season – the team led by Rui Borges remains with 10 points in the competition and could drop in the standings by the end of this round. The next game in the international competition is scheduled for Tuesday, January 20, 2026, at 8:00 PM, against the French team PSG, at Sporting's home ground.
