“Luis at the end told me they had been quite lucky during the 95 minutes but we lost, we can move on,” revealed Enzo Maresca following Manchester City’s defeat to Paris Saint-Germain. The City manager’s optimism persisted despite a first-half collapse that handed PSG control and left his team trailing significantly.
The response from City in the second half provided a glimmer of hope, although it was goals from Ousmane Dembele, Desire Doue, and Vitinha before the break that ultimately proved decisive in the match.
Enrique confirmed Maresca’s assessment in a post-match interview, acknowledging that City’s aggressive strategy after half-time had created difficulties for PSG. His comments underscored the tension and competitiveness of the encounter, as both teams navigated the pressures of high-stakes football.
