"We are not afraid." Enrique throws down the gauntlet to Liverpool ahead of Champions League clash

PSG approaches the match with Liverpool in high spirits. The team has only dropped points once in 2025, and in their last game, they thrashed Lille with a 4-1 scoreline. Parisian head coach Luis Enrique believes this was a rehearsal for hosting Liverpool.

Details: PSG's coach stated that Liverpool and Lille have a similar style of play, which made it easy for him to test his squad's strength ahead of the European contest. Enrique is confident in his team's abilities.

Quote:

“Liverpool and Lille have a lot in common. Lille plays well, but we put such pressure on them that they couldn't move the ball out. We were good both with and without the ball. It was an excellent test ahead of the Champions League match. It will be tough, but we are in our best period of the season.

I know Liverpool very well. After analyzing this team, I can say they are the strongest team in Europe, both in terms of results and style. They were the first team to qualify, and they did so brilliantly. This could have been a Champions League final, but it won't be.

But we will play with our weapons, we won't be calculative. We will be playing against the best team in Europe, but for me, it's 50/50, we are not afraid,” Enrique stated in an interview with Le Parisien.
