The draw conceded at the Parc des Princes against PSV Eindhoven (1-1), this Tuesday evening, will leave its mark… Even in the statistics. With this new match without a victory in the Champions League, three weeks after the defeat at Arsenal, PSG presents, since the arrival of Luis Enrique in the summer of 2023, its worst success ratio on the European scene.
Catapulted onto the Parisian bench at the start of last season, the Spanish technician has only won six times in 15 Champions League matches, or 40% victory rate. This season, during the first three days, the former FC Barcelona coach, recently presented as “the best”, by Nasser Al-Khelaïfi in an interview with the Spanish daily As, only won against Girona (1 -0)… In the final moments of the meeting.
Still a little further from the Top 8
Worse, Luis Enrique, who recently extended his contract which expired in June 2025, even has as many victories as defeats in the race for the stars (6 wins, 6 losses, 3 draws). Last year, we can notably cite the two disappointments against Dortmund in the semi-final (1-0 and 1-0), the hiccup in the quarter-final first leg against Barcelona, or even a very complicated group stage ( defeat against Newcastle and AC Milan).
Except that with the new format of the Champions League, this series of bad results could have more serious consequences. With 4 points in 3 days, PSG is only 17th in the League phase before the matches on Wednesday evening which will push them back in the standings and move a little further away from the Top 8, synonymous with direct qualification in the round of 16 .
