Paris Saint-Germain have been handed a playoff with a distinctly French flavor against AS Monaco following the UEFA Champions League draw. This matchup comes on the heels of a grueling league phase for Paris, who finished 11th despite a string of high-caliber clashes.

Frustrated by the new format, Luis Enrique has highlighted what he sees as unequal treatment.

"To be fair, everyone should have the same schedule," he told PSG TV, lamenting that his side faces tougher stretches than other teams. "Teams should have the same calendar," he insisted.

The draw against Newcastle United proved costly in the standings, forcing Paris to go through the playoff round. It's an added challenge in an already packed schedule, with potentially even tougher encounters on the horizon.
