We didn’t deserve to lose the game looking at how we pressed them – Luis Enrique
Paris Saint-Germain manager, Luis Enrique has expressed disappointment and explained why Newcastle United defeated his team 4-1 UEFA Champions League game.
Speaking after the game, Enrique also congratulated Newcastle for the outcome of the match and believed his side didn’t deserve to lose by such a big scoreline .
“I sincerely think the result is a bit unfair, but not totally. Congratulations to Newcastle, they played very good football. They were effective in the last part of the pitch and we made some mistakes, it is hard to accept that. If you make mistakes you pay for that. Their press worked. We tried to put in front of their goal as many chances as possible but we weren’t so effective in the last part of the pitch.But the scoreline is excessive. The result is so big for them. But I think we didn’t deserve that result.”
Goals from Miguel Almiron, Dan Burn, Sean Longstaff and Fabian Schar gave Newcastle the victory over the French Ligue 1 champions at St. James’ Park.
