The spectacular 5:4 between Paris Saint-Germain and FC Bayern still reverberates after the final whistle – and PSG coach Luis Enrique had clear words for an extraordinary evening of soccer

The Spaniard was deeply impressed by the quality and intensity of both teams after the semi-final first leg. „I’ve never seen such intensity and such a physical level. That was the BEST game I’ve seen as a coach. No question about it,“ said Enrique, summing up what made this game so special

For the PSG coach, it was a duel at the absolute top level, in which two teams met at eye level. Despite the narrow victory, he did not want to overrate the result, but instead focused on the overall performance

Particularly noteworthy: Enrique saw almost every result in this game as justified. „We deserved to win today, we deserved a draw and we also deserved to lose,“ explained the 55-year-old

A statement that underlines how evenly matched this duel was, with both teams engaging in an open exchange of blows in which the game could tilt at any time

It was precisely this unpredictability that made the game a real highlight of the current Champions League season

Respect for Bayern – focus on the second leg

With his words, Enrique also paid great respect to FC Bayern, who held their own despite several setbacks and kept the game exciting until the end

In the end, one impression remained above all: two teams at the absolute top level who gave nothing away to each other and provided the fans with a real soccer spectacle. „It was a fantastic game,“ Enrique summed up – a sentence that probably describes the evening at the Prinzenpark better than any statistics

Everything is now wide open for the second leg in Munich, and PSG know that it will be no easy task to make it through to the final against FC Bayern.
