"Manchester United" yesterday in the UEFA Champions League quarter-final at home lost to "Paris Saint-Germain" with a score of 0:2 and minimized their chances of advancing to the next stage of the tournament.
Despite the defeat, "Red Devils" goalkeeper Ander Herrera said after the match that the game was completely balanced until PSG's first goal, which was particularly painful for the Manchester team.
"I think the game was even until the first goal. Neither team can say that one was better before that.
We were dealt a painful blow because you can't afford to concede a goal after a corner against teams of this caliber. In the first 60 minutes or so, they didn't create any chances from open play. The only two chances were from set pieces," A. Herrera did not hide his disappointment after the match.
"After the first goal, PSG had more chances to launch quick attacks, and they have players who do it excellently. The opponents could construct their game from defense, where we pressed them well, which resulted in spaces opening up in our half that weren't there in the first half of the match.
This is football, and we have to learn from these matches. You just can't concede a goal after a corner against a team of this level."
However, the Spaniard still has faith that his team can turn things around in Paris.
"We have good examples. We beat the teams of "Tottenham" and "Arsenal" away, which are as good as PSG, so we will go to Paris to make it difficult for them.
But first, we have the FA Cup matches against "Chelsea" and further battles for survival in the first quarter of the "Premier" League," the "Man Utd" goalkeeper said.
