PSG Coach Downplays Defender Absence Ahead of Barcelona Clash

Paris Saint-Germain will face Barcelona on Tuesday, with coach Luis Enrique saying the best way to defend against Lamine Yamal is to keep possession.

  1. PSG confirmed the injury absence of left‑back Nuno Mendes, who missed the last match against the Portuguese side.
  2. Enrique addressed the media before the game, noting that Barcelona have several quality attackers, including Raphinha, Cubarsi and Joan Garcia.
  3. He added that controlling the ball limits Yamal’s impact, rather than relying on a specific defender.
  4. The match, scheduled for 21:00, will serve as a showcase for Yamal as the Ballon d’Or winner is announced a week later.

The encounter will test PSG’s tactical approach without Mendes.
