Luis Enrique can't hide his massive frustration after Sporting v PSG | OneFootball

After Sporting's historic victory against the French team Paris Saint-Germain, where Nuno Mendes plays, by 2-1, with goals from Luis Suárez, Luís Enrique, the Parisians' coach, showed great "frustration", saying that the result was very unfair, as they were much better than the lions.

"It's easy to explain our performance. We played the best away game of the season. We were much superior, we deserved to win, but football is capricious", began the coach who has won the competition twice, in statements to Sport TV.

The current holder of the prestigious competition continued to assert his position, despite already knowing the qualities of the Sporting team. "We knew about Sporting's defensive and offensive quality, but, I repeat, there was only one team in the game. We were much better than our opponent. We didn't let them play, they didn't attack, we completely dominated and we deserved to have won. But football is unfair and rewarded those who scored more goals, which was Sporting."

It is worth remembering that Luis Enrique, now 55 years old, is one of the most renowned coaches in the world of football, after successful stints at Barcelona, the Spanish national team, and now PSG. However, in 2012, the scenario was quite different and the coach was linked to Sporting, during the presidency of Godinho Lopes.

Rui Borges' team has 13 points in the competition and is in sixth place, provisionally, in the standings, in a position for direct access to the round of 16 of the prestigious competition. The next game in the international competition is scheduled for Wednesday, January 28, at 20:00, against the Spanish team Athletic Bilbao, in the Basque Country.
