UCL: Luis Enrique Proud Despite 'Unfair' Exit

By Chimezie Nebolisa

Paris Saint-Germain coach Luis Enrique insisted he was proud of his side despite what he called an "unfair" defeat at the hands of Borussia Dortmund in their Champions League semifinal.

PSG missed out on reaching next month's final at Wembley after losing Tuesday's semifinal second leg 1-0 at home to the Germans and going out of the competition 2-0 on aggregate.

"My feeling is of sadness. It can't be anything else. We didn't manage to fulfil our objective," Luis Enrique, who led Barcelona to Champions League glory in 2015, told reporters.

"I don't think we were inferior over the tie. We hit the woodwork six times. The curious thing about football is that sometimes it's not fair – we had 31 shots and did not score a single goal.Football was not fair with us in this tie. We have to accept it, congratulate the team that reached the final, mourn this and get over the disappointment," he added.
