PSG Will Play Fearless Football Against Inter Milan – Luis Enrique

PSG manager Luis Enrique has challenged his players to make history by winning the club’s first UCL trophy.

He recently revealed that his players have the opportunity to go down in history as the names that delivered the club from its UCL drought.

Speaking at his pre-match news conference, Enrique appreciated his boys for their admirable mindset, stressing that they will have to be as strong as possible to crown their efforts in Munich.

He shared that even though the road to the final has been tedious and difficult, he fully credits the team’s early struggles for the consistency his players are currently showing.

According to him, PSG played finals just to qualify for the second round of the tournament, and that daunting experience is the reason his players now play fearless football.

“When you make history, it is about doing something that nobody at your club has done before.

But I love their [players] mindset. We are where we want to be, but we want to try to be as strong as possible and win tomorrow.

Our journey has been difficult, it’s been a long and winding road, but the fact we struggled through this competition in the early games it has probably helped us now.

We have had to play ‘finals’ in this competition for a long time and had to deal with what has been thrown at us, but we haven’t shown any signs of fears so far and we won’t tomorrow,” he said.

Admitting that he has matured as a manager since 2015, when he won the UCL with Barcelona, Enrique maintained that his additional decade-long experience will go a long way towards preparing his team for such an important final.

He concluded by saying that PSG is a team that is already used to playing finals, but the UCL clash vs Inter Milan will require added motivation and better mental preparation.

“I have peace of mind thanks to my maturity. I have 10 years’ more experience since 2015, I am 10 years older, so I try to share with experience with my players as it’s a wonderful opportunity for them.

When a coach manages his squad, there is only one objective and that is to make sure the players are out there as best possible to win on the pitch.

This is a team that’s used to playing finals. Motivation and the mental aspects are very important, but we’re used to this.

We have had harmony and I haven’t changed anything. I have an exceptional squad and they have always seen the glass as half-full,” he added.
