"If my team wins, I'm a hero, if we lose, I'm a villain"

"We hit the post, or to put it another way, we were lucky".

Paris Saint-Germain (PSG) lost 0-1 to Dortmund in the second leg of their UEFA Champions League (UCL) quarterfinal second leg of the 2023-2024 season at the Parc des Princes in Paris, France, at 4:00 a.m. ET on Aug. 8. In the other quarterfinal, Munich and Real will meet at 4 a.m. on Sept. 9.

After losing the first leg 0-1, PSG fell behind 0-2 on aggregate in the first and second legs and failed to advance to the final. With the first leg ending 0-0, PSG scored the winning goal in the second leg. Five minutes into the second half, Dortmund's Hommels rattled the PSG net with a pinpoint header on a loose ball.

PSG made a change, bringing midfielder Lee Kang-In into the fray from the bench. In the 30th minute of the second half, PSG took off Zaire Emery and sent Lee onto the field.

In the 36th minute, 바카라사이트 Lee registered an assist with a 'courier cross'. He stepped up to take the free kick from long range. Marquinhos connected with a header, but the ball missed the side of the goal by a mere sheet of paper.

There was no reversal. The game ended with a 1-0 victory for Dortmund.

Mbappe, who played the full 90 minutes of the match (excluding stoppage time), had a shot accuracy of 75% (3/4), a passing success rate of 79% (22/28), 12 touches in the opponent's box, 100% (3/3) dribbling success, 0% (0/4) accurate crosses, and two ball losses. For an 'ace', his shooting accuracy is low, and as a result, he doesn't play the role of a fixer. He earned a middling 6.9 rating.

Mbappe said after the game, "It's all of our fault. When there is a good result, I take all the shine, so I have to take responsibility when it's not a good result." "It's my fault. Our performance is the problem. I should have been the first player to score. I have to overcome myself and the team."

On the day, PSG hit a whopping six shots on target. Some argued that they were too unlucky. But Mbappe dismissed that notion. "You could say we hit the post because we were unlucky. But to put it another way, you could say that I was lucky enough to hit the post on a deflected shot," he emphasized.
