The Dutch coach of Barça lost his duel with Mauricio Pochettino, the Argentinian coach of PSG.
Logically disappointed, Ronald Koeman does not wish to hide the weaknesses of his team, which he considers still too young for these European meetings.
What is your reaction after this result?
RONALD KOEMAN.
The first half was more balanced than the second.
They dominated us in many aspects after the break.
They have shown that their team is more complete, more physical, more efficient.
What criticism can you make as a coach?
It's always the coach's responsibility after a loss.
We did not know how to stop the Parisian attackers.
It's a moment of reflection for the team.
They are more complete than us.
Our team is in transition.
We have to accept it and look at what we lack.
How do you see the future?
I go home sad.
We are missing things that the Champions League is asking for.
We have to be realistic.
The team is changing things.
There are young people in many positions.
We have to accept it, analyze it and improve things.
Do you still have the faith to continue here?
I am a straight person.
I accept a defeat.
We are going to work.
I wouldn't want to continue?
It's madness.
I know where I am.
We're halfway there.
The club does not seem to see the light at the end of the tunnel… How to change things?

The light does not come in two months.
I am convinced that we are on a good path.
We'll get there.
We are not up to the task physically, in personality.
La Liga is moving away, the Champions League too… How to deal with the rest?
There is always a need to want to win everything.
But we are missing some things.
We will continue to change and fight.
Pedri, with his age, is strong.
In five years, he will be better than all PSG midfielders.
I am realistic.
I always defend my team.
We can defend better, be more aggressive.
I am not that sad.
I never thought before this match that we were perfect.
