“PSG were better than us and it is something that must be accepted”

The RB Leipzig coach, Julian Nagelsmann, acknowledged on Tuesday the superiority of PSG and said that this was something that had to be accepted and accepted and that it is part of football. “The rival was better than us and that is something we have to accept. At the beginning we received a goal in a set-piece situation and then we lost control, we lost a lot of balls in our own half,” he told Sky channel.

“In the second half, when we were improving, we conceded the third. Then it was a question of character, the game was settled but it was about not sinking and I think we resolved that well,” he added.

Nagelsmann said that he had told his players that he was proud of them for the campaign they had run in the Champions League. “To impose ourselves at this level, many things have to work. They worked against Atlético but not against PSG, but it must be said that PSG was also much superior to Atlético,” he said.
