PSG manager Luis Enrique believes his side \u2018didn\u2019t deserve\u2019 to lose by such a big scoreline to Newcastle United in the Champions League.<\/p>\n

But while Enrique defended his tactics, his players appeared to disagree with how they set up against the Magpies.<\/p>\n

Newcastle humbled PSG 4-1 at St. James\u2019 Park on Wednesday night, with goals from Miguel Almiron, Dan Burn, Sean Longstaff and Fabian Schar.<\/p>\n

The result was fully deserved, with the Premier League side completely outplaying the Ligue 1 champions, with the Parisians unable to deal with their high-pressing opponents.<\/p>\n

This is partly because they lined up in an ultra attacking 4-2-2 formation, which lacked a strong spine, and after going 2-0 down before the break many expected Enrique to change things up.<\/p>\n

But this didn\u2019t happen, with the former Barcelona and Spain boss explaining to Canal+<\/strong>: \u2018I thought it was for the best, and I still do.<\/p>\n

\u2018Those are difficult games to live through for a manager. I sincerely think the result is a bit unfair, but not totally.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

\u2018Congratulations to Newcastle, they played very good football. They were effective in the last part of the pitch and we made some mistakes, it is hard to accept that. If you make mistakes you pay for that.<\/p>\n

\u2018Their press worked. We tried to put in front of their goal as many chances as possible but we weren\u2019t so effective in the last part of the pitch.<\/p>\n

\u2018But the scoreline is excessive. The result is so big for them. But I think we didn\u2019t deserve that result.\u2019<\/p>\n

PSG\u2019s players told a different story however, with defender Lucas Hernandez, who scored his side\u2019s consolation, seemingly questioning his manager\u2019s tactics when asked apart the lack of midfield strength.<\/p>\n

\u2018It\u2019s the manager\u2019s choice. We tried to get their defence in trouble, but it did not work,\u2019 the French World Cup winner said.<\/p>\n

\u2018We knew it wouldn\u2019t be an easy game. This is the Champions League. Without pace and physicality, you can end up with such a result.\u2019<\/p>\n
