PSG-Manchester City: maximum emotion

2021-04-30T14:31:07.824Z


The journey of PSG in the Champions League proves that it is not necessary to change the formula of the event so that the big


The Super League is dead, long live the Super League!

Why reinvent it since it already exists?

Even in its current formula, imperfect and sometimes boring in its first phase, the Champions League allows great teams to compete against each other.

The proof ?

It suffices to recall the journey made this season by PSG in European competition.

Since last October, the Parisian team has already triumphed over three football giants: Manchester United, FC Barcelona and Bayern Munich. Between them, they represent 14 victories in the supreme test of the Old Continent. And this Wednesday evening, it is a fourth cador who stands on the way to the title in front of Mbappé and Neymar. Manchester City is a formidable machine trained by one of the best coaches in the world, the Catalan Pep Guardiola.

Thanks to the money invested by its owner from Abu Dhabi, the English club have already won the Premier League four times, the very competitive English championship. On the lawn of the Parc des Princes, some of the best players in the world will therefore compete. Maximum stake, guaranteed suspense. Both clubs have made the Champions League their main goal for many years.

PSG touched on goal last summer but were beaten in the final. He wants his revenge. Against all expectations, Manchester City have so far always failed earlier in the test. It might be a good year for the Citizens. We will find out on May 4 after the return leg. The two matches of this semi-final will be followed with passion all over the world in the absence of an audience present in the stadiums. Why, therefore, invent another form of competition? We understand the economic calculations that could have justified creating a super championship. But it is difficult to see how the sporting emotion could have rivaled the one we will experience this Wednesday evening.
