Diklan Rice acquired the mood and took a sign of risk signals in his final message, as Arsenal gathered in a crowd before they faced the tremendous challenge of Paris Saint Ferman.
“If we do not have the ball, we will die,” Rice told his teammates on the Arsenal team, as they finished the warmth before the Champions League semi -finals at the Emirates Stadium.
Arsenal has not completely died in a tie, but they are definitely struggling to survive because they are training 1-0 to return in Paris – mainly because they were unable to implement rice instructions in the decisive opening stages that formed the game.
The theater was appointed for the first semi -finals in the Champions League in Arsenal 16 years ago through a heavy firework and fireworks show, all against the background of a huge banner covering giant situations briefly with words “make them happen”.
It was Paris Saint -Germain that made her happen – and made it exactly the way the rice was clearly afraid.
It ended in the fourth minute of Osman Dembele through Arsenal goalkeeper David Raya from the delivery of Khaficha Kfarathalia with the culmination of the 26 -pass movement. PSG was in a mini -image, Rice's warning was delivered in the most painful way.
To emphasize the dominance of Paris Saint -Germain on the first stock exchanges, they had a total of 71.6 % possession in the first 26 minutes, which is the period of the game in which they threw a bucket of cold ice water on what was a white environment, and put the platform for the feature that they would return to Paris in the second stage next Wednesday.
In that same period, the PSG had a great traffic accuracy of 86.5 % in half of Arsenal, and the total percentage was 165 pass to 60.
In fact, when Arsenal recently read the Rice Memorandum, the most important damage was caused.
Arsenal pulled him around him, having 55.4 % for the rest of the game, but Rice knew what was happening, and Paris Saint -Germain was very good to stop early.
