PSG manager Luis Enrique has reached the UEFA Champions League semifinals in three straight seasons since taking over. Moreover, he now has his sights set on making back-to-back final appearances as Arsenal awaits the winner of the PSG-Bayern Munich matchup.
The capital club heads into Munich with a slight 5-4 aggregate lead. Moreover, as the German side demonstrated in the first leg, no lead is safe, and they must be aggressive if they want to come out on top.
If the Parisians also want to advance, they face the challenge of doing so without one of their best players, Achraf Hakimi, who suffered an injury in the first leg.

Ahead of a challenging second leg in Germany, PSG manager Luis Enrique shared what he is stressing to his team to ensure they are ready for what’s in store in a hostile environment, with a ticket to the final on the line.
“When you play this kind of match, against this kind of opposition, who are without doubt the strongest team we have played against, the first thing I want to transmit to the players is that we have a one goal advantage, but that is nothing in football,” Enrique said (h/t PSG’s official website).
“We have the experience from last year. We are always striving to be at our best for our supporters.”
PSG showed they can go toe-to-toe with Bayern Munich, even pulling ahead, and the Ligue 1 side will need to do the same if the team wants to reach the final.
