Arsenal coach Michel Arteta says his team will have to “do something special in Paris” if they want to reach the Champions League final after his defeat in the semi -finals.
Othman Dembele's early strike in the UAE leaves the defenders who need to veto one deficit against Paris Fili in the second stage match in Parc Des Prinles next week.
It was eventually a frustrating night for Arsenal in the Emirates Stadium, which failed to convert any of the five shots on the target.
“If you want to win the Champions League final, you must do something special. We will have to do something special in Paris to be there.”
PSG dominated the opening 20 minutes of the match, while the hosts in the game grew, they continued to frustrate the strong defense of the French, and they failed to score in the Champions League match for the first time since February 2016.
“We have a lot of opportunities in that final. As I repeat myself, you have to do something special in the competition to be the right to be in the final. The time to do this will be in Paris,” said Arta.
Arsenal has not reached the final since 2005-2006 while Paris Saint-Germain hunts the Champions League Cup.
As they did against Liverpool and Aston Villa earlier in the campaign, the Luis Enrique team relied on Italian goalkeeper Gianluigi Donnarma to keep them away from trouble.
The 26-year-old kept a clean paper and made five rescue operations-including the important stations of the denial of Gabriel Martinelli and Lindro Troced in individual situations.
“In the end, we have two of our front players with one with Donnarumma. If they scored the goal, it was different. He achieved this rescue, as he did against Liverpool and Villa, and this is the difference in the Champions League.”
But Enrique says that the shot of the shot was doing his work.
“This is the work of a goalkeeper, no? Save the team, they work every day for that. In a semi -final, you need all the players,” the Spaniard said.
