Paris Saint-Germain suffered a disappointing defeat against AC Milan, losing 2-1 in the 4th match of the group stage of the Champions League 2023-2024 at the San Siro Stadium this Tuesday.
After the match, Jérôme Rothen, former PSG midfielder and current analyst, shared his impressions on RMC Sport.
“They are heading for trouble in away matches. We had a first test in Newcastle, a second test in Milan. So far, they can’t answer the big questions we have in terms of level, game, technique, tactics, physicality, and intensity.
When you face teams that bring a lot of tempo, volume, and intense duels to a match, which is common in big matches, you don’t step up. This PSG is heading for trouble, yes, but it’s up to them to progress. I expected answers from them based on the Newcastle match. The answers are simple; for now, some players are not at the level of the Champions League, in a tough match in a legendary stadium, against an opponent fired up and elevated. You’re not at the level.”
