For the first time since 2005, neither Lionel Messi ni Cristiano Ronaldo, winners of nine of the last 15 editions with their respective clubs, will be present in the semifinals of the Champions League. In the absence of Real Madrid, of the Milan, of the Liverpool or of Barcelona, only the Bayern Munich resists in the face of the emergence of the new European powers, embodied in the PSG of Neymar and in the Leipzig version Red Bull.
More about Leipzig-PSG:
Although the Parisian club has just celebrated its fiftieth anniversary, and was already in the semifinals of Champions League in 1995, it was after the arrival of the Qatari owners that it changed size. A time that coincides with the founding of Leipzig… in 2009. In the space of a decade, the East German club went from the fifth category to the European elite thanks to the support of the multinational Red Bull and a sports policy focused on the detection of young talents.
On the other hand, the coach of LeipzigJulian Nagelsmann (33 years old), will try to show that he can surpass his former teacher Thomas Tuchel (46 years old), coach of the Parisians, the man who prompted him to be a coach at 20 years old. Faced with the young technical supporter of unapologetic football, and who made Diego Simeone’s Atlético de Madrid bow the knee last Thursday (2-1), the pressure of the result falls on Tuchel’s men, as Austrian midfielder Marcel indicated Sabitzer: “Of course PSG is the favorite.”
The players of the Leipzig “They don’t have the pressure to win the Champions League or to reach the final,” acknowledged Ander Herrera. “That can be more dangerous for us because without that pressure one plays freer,” added the Spanish midfielder from PSG.
