“Like a Horror Movie Script” – Luis Enrique Reacts To PSG’s Draw Against Newcastle Citing Kylian Mbappe’s Controversial Penalty

VAR decisions in soccer are preparing teams to accept technology with its pros and cons. Paris Saint-Germain, under Luis Enrique, is very clear about what they need this season. The club will take yesterday’s draw against Newcastle United in a controversial finish that ended with Kylian Mbappe‘s controversial penalty. Subsequently, in the quest for winning, the coach reveals how soccer can turn into a nightmare.

Yesterday’s UEFA Champions League matchday could not get less intriguing. Newcastle United stood a great chance of making a dream comeback to the tournament’s knockout rounds. However, the Ligue 1 giants ruined the night for the Magpies.

Luis Enrique compares soccer to a script many wouldn’t want to remember

Paris Saint-Germain stole a point in the dying minutes of the game. The home team unexpectedly won a penalty after the 90th minute in stoppage time, which was converted by Kylian Mbappe. On the other hand, this moment was deemed unlucky by Newcastle fans. However, Luis Enrique countered it, deeming his team a goalscoring one and soccer a cruel sport, unlike basketball. He said, “This is football; we are not talking about basketball. It is normal. We are one of the teams that score the most goals in Europe…I would single out my players for their belief and fans for their incredible support.”

“We felt their strength and equalized in the 93rd minute. It’s a bit like the script of a horror movie”. The coach said that the crowd continued cheering despite them not scoring for 60–70 minutes. PSG dominated the game most of the time and Kylian Mbappe admitted that too. Both Dembele and Mbappe’s shots were saved brilliantly by goalkeeper Nick Pope to keep PSG trailing. However, defender Tino Livramento’s handball, after a deviation from his thigh, earned PSG the ultimate lifeline. What’s the scenario with the ‘group of death’ now? Let’s dive deeper.

The group of death gets interesting ahead of the final week

Newcastle ventured into yesterday’s away game at the Parc des Princes after thrashing the home team 4-1. Another win for them would have given the Magpies a good chance to get through to the knockouts. But with the 1-1 result, the group of death has suddenly become wide open, with all four teams having a chance to leapfrog each other.
