Arsenal delivered a commanding performance to defeat Paris Saint-Germain 2-0 at the Emirates Stadium in the UEFA Champions League group stage
While Arteta and Enrique share a deep bond, there will be no room for sentiment when the whistle blows. Both managers are determined to etch their names into Champions League history
Gianluigi Donnarumma was hailed as the world's best goalkeeper by Paris Saint-Germain coach Luis Enrique after his saves helped the French club reach the Champions League semifinal against Arsenal. However, for all of his shot-stopping ability, Donnarumma remains alarmingly vulnerable on set pieces and corners areas which just happen to be Arsenal's major strongpoint. The sides meet on Tuesday in London in the first leg of their semifinal, where Donnarumma will be in the spotlight. His blunders cost PSG when it lost 2-0 at Arsenal early into the league phase. Two weeks ago, the 26-year-old Italian made great saves with his team under pressure against Aston Villa in the quarterfinal return leg. PSG emerged 5-4 winners on aggregate thanks in large part to their goalkeeper. Donnarumma has proved to be outstanding on his line thanks to remarkable speed and agility. He starred in a penalty shootout when Italy won the European Championship in 2021 and did so again when PSG eliminated .

The one-sided Ligue 1 title race ended with a whimper, but the chase for Champions League places promises to be an intense sprint finish in France. With at least six teams still in contention and six games left, this weekend's matches could shake up the standings. The top three get an automatic spot and the side in fourth enters the qualifying rounds. French champion Paris Saint-Germain has secured one of the spots, leaving three. Only five points separate second-placed Marseille from Lille in seventh spot, while Monaco can leapfrog Marseille into second place if it wins their encounter on Saturday. But if Monaco fails to win at Stade Louis II, then Strasbourg will move into third place with a home win on Saturday against Nice, which is sixth and in poor form following three defeats in the last four games. That has opened the door for resurgent Lyon in fifth place. Should Monaco and Strasbourg both lose, then seven-time French champion Lyon would move into third with a win at Aux
A French campaign group has called on the country's authorities to punish homophobic and racist chanting after the biggest match in the league between Paris Saint-Germain and Marseille was marred by discriminatory singing. The abuse tarnished PSG's 3-1 win over its bitter rival in what is known as "Le Classique", and again highlighted soccer's inability to properly deal with the issue. French referees have the power to stop play if fans chant homophobic and racist slurs in stadiums. But Sunday's match at the Parc des Princes was not paused by referee Clment Turpin who is considered one of the best in Europe despite repeated incidents. The Rouge Direct group called on Monday for the ministers of sport, interior and justice, as well as officials from the French soccer federation and league, to ensure that these illegal chants are finally severely punished. The group posted footage on social media in which hardcore PSG fans can be heard chanting and shouting insults at Marseille. Th

Luis Enrique credits Pep Guardiola with inventing arguably the perfect model of attacking soccer. He must now outwit him when Paris Saint-Germain faces Manchester City in the Champions League on Wednesday, in a match both teams must win to avoid the prospect of early elimination in the new-look format. It's a special game. Not just for the two teams but because I will come across a friend who I shared many great moments with as a player and a person, Enrique said on Tuesday through a translator. What brings us closer is our vision of football: To try and be better than the opponent on the ball, to constantly press the opponent. We can fine-tune our game but we have a similar way of seeing things. Guardiola rose to fame as a coach during a glory era for Barcelona, winning the Champions League twice and multiple other trophies. Guardiola's sides hypnotized opponents with a pulsating brand of attacking soccer led by Lionel Messi that was the envy of Europe. Guardiola then turned City
Premier League leaders Liverpool are also leading the charts of the Champions League this season with an unbeaten run so far in the competition
Ousmane Dembl scored a stoppage-time winner as Paris Saint-Germain beat Monaco 1-0 to win the Champions Trophy. The France winger was unmarked at the back post to meet a low cross from the left by Fabian Ruiz in the second minute of added time on Sunday. PSG won the trophy, also known as the French Super Cup, for the third straight time and a record-extending 13th overall. PSG won the league and cup double last season, with Monaco finishing second in the league. The result reflects our domination, PSG coach Luis Enrique said, while Monaco coach Adi Htter conceded PSG played better. A goal in the last minute always feels like a knife in the back, Htter said. PSG deserved to win if we're being honest, they had more chances. The match took place at Stadium 974 in Doha, Qatar, with PSG owned by Qatar-based QSI since 2011. Dsir Dou hit the crossbar early on for PSG and Monaco goalkeeper Philipp Khn made several saves. Monaco improved after the break and hit the post through Eliesse
Both sides have met just twice over the years, and both games ended in a draw. With nothing to separate the teams, this game will surely tip the scales in favour of one or the other.
Ousmane Dembl scored twice and Paris Saint-Germain remained perfect and prolific in the French league after beating Brest 3-1. PSG stayed in command at the top of the standings with a fourth win in as many games on Saturday. Luis Enrique's team has coped with the departure of Kylian Mbappe to Real Madrid and has 16 goals so far. Brest goalkeeper Marco Bizot managed to keep PSG at bay until Dembl leveled the score three minutes before the interval. Romain Del Castillo put Brest ahead from the penalty spot at the Parc des Princes. PSG then killed any remaining suspense in the space of 80 seconds when Fabian Ruiz scored in the 73rd with a powerful strike and Dembl completed his brace in the next minute. Despite the millions of euros invested to build a competitive team since a 2011 takeover by Qatari investors, PSG is still chasing an elusive Champions League title. It will host Girona on Wednesday in Europe's top club competition. Brest, which also qualified for the tournament with
