“Composition-wise, the coach is a very good dribbler.”
Ousmane Dembélé warned us.
This Wednesday in our columns, the French international evoked the mystery that Luis Enrique maintained over his compositions and the surprises that he could sometimes reserve.
A few hours before facing Real Sociedad, the Spanish technician did it again and in a very good way.
The composition of PSG:
Donnarumma - Hakimi, Marquinhos (cap.), Danilo, Beraldo - Zaire-Emery, Ruiz, Vitinha - Dembélé, Mbappé, Barcola.
For this round of 16 first leg, he decided to field Lucas Beraldo rather than Lucas Hernandez, under suspension, who will sit on the bench.
Real tactical choice on the part of the coach or was the former Bayern Munich man also affected by gastro which contaminated several players in the squad?
Affected, Kang-in Lee had to withdraw on Wednesday morning and Marco Asensio was uncertain for a long time but his state of health clearly improved during the day.
With the exception of this surprise, the PSG eleven corresponds to that announced with the presence of Fabian Ruiz in midfield in place of Manuel Ugarte.
In the midfield, he will be accompanied by Warren Zaire-Emery and Vitinha.
As expected, Dembélé, Mbappé and Barcola will play the leading roles in attack.
