How a Radical Shift Propelled PSG to Their Long-Awaited Champions League Triumph
Luis Enrique has created a team that has it all. They play with flair and plenty of attacking intent, regardless of the opposition. They topped the Champions League charts this season in shots taken, dribbles and chances created, but what makes them truly remarkable is the fact that while doing all this, they also covered the most ground, showing clearly that they don’t lack hard work either. And if that isn’t enough, they do have one of the best between the posts to fall back on.
Probably the most important aspect of PSG’s style is that no player sees himself above the rest of the team, above doing the basic tasks, or feels even the slightest resentment when another name from the team steals the headlines. You will see their skillful, exciting forwards track back and defend with everything they’ve got, and you will also see defenders appearing in the opposition six-yard box to score simple tap-ins. And however extraordinary those players are, to leave out the midfield section from this praise would be nothing short of criminal.
