In a recent statement captured by Canal+, coach Luis Enrique shared his thoughts on the eve of the game back from the quarterfinals of the Champions League, between Paris Saint-Germain and Aston Villa. The Parisian club, with its initial victory at Parc des Princes (3-1), went to Birmingham with the ambition to validate its ticket for the last square and continue its European journey. The team, determined not to let its advantage go, approaches this meeting with the firm intention to impose itself a second time on the lawn of Aston Villa, refusing any conservative approach.

Luis Enrique stressed the importance of adaptation and tactical preparation in the face of an unpredictable opponent. He stressed that the overarching goal remains victory, highlighting his coaching role of identifying and implementing the best strategies for the team. He also stressed the need for a coordinated defence and attack, stating that this collective mentality has been a key element of the team’s success since the beginning of the season.

Aware of the uncertainty about Aston Villa’s strategy, the Spanish coach said his team is ready to respond to all the scenarios. He expressed the team’s satisfaction at embodying this offensive and combative mentality, stressing that careful preparation and willingness to adapt are the cornerstones of their approach to high-level football. Paris Saint-Germain is therefore ready to face the Villans with determination and ambition.
