Paris Saint-Germain's Portuguese midfielder João Neves didn't hold back in his post-match interview following the triumph over London’s Arsenal in the Champions League final.
Details: The young PSG playmaker João Neves was ruthless in his assessment of the opposition's tactics, dismantling the Gunners in the media just as his team did in the penalty shootout.
Neves openly stated that throughout all 120 minutes at the Puskás Aréna, it was the French giants who dominated, while Mikel Arteta’s men seemed focused solely on defending:
"To be completely honest, I saw only one team on the pitch," he said.
With this short but sharp comment, the Portuguese midfielder clearly took a jab at Arsenal’s ultra-defensive and passive approach, as the Gunners retreated deep into their own box after an early goal.
Reminder: Paris was ablaze all night after PSG’s victory, with police detaining hundreds of people.
