In the end, Thomas Tuchel and his team from Paris prevailed against Dortmund. After the game, the ex-BVB coach commented on the previous criticism of his team and himself.
Paris-Saint-Germain still qualified for the next round in the Champions League by beating Borussia Dortmund 2-0 in the second round second leg on Wednesday evening.
The weeks and days before, he had been harshly criticized because he is at the top with his team in the league and in the French Cup in the final, but for PSG, international success is what counts above all. And the 1: 2 first-leg defeat in Dortmund gave no indication of anything good.

Now that he had turned the game, Tuchel said to Sky: “The mixed situation beforehand and how our team is talked about is always tasty. Also with them (Tuchel meant the reporting from Sky; editor’s note) in the studio. I happened to walk past an iPad on the game with all the headlines on it: Tuchel doesn’t have his team under control. And then comes the statistics: only lost once in 28 games. “
And further: “There is constant chatter, nice greetings to the studio!” In the studio that evening, besides the moderator, there were also record national players Lothar Matthäus and ex-national goalkeeper Jens Lehmann.
Then Tuchel tried to analyze his team a little more recently, because last season they were eliminated in the knockout round of the premier class: “Things that happened to PSG before were always like that, everything in the game It went totally wrong. This time it was the case that everything went wrong before. And today it just works the way it should. We are happy. ”
