PSG coach Luis Enrique is confident that his players will not be carried away by their first leg 2-0 win over Arsenal in the Champions League semi-final on Tuesday.
Ousmane Dembele scored the only goal of the encounter in the fourth minute to give the French champions a first-leg advantage going into the second leg in France.
PSG failed to take advantage of their dominance in the encounter as they couldn’t convert their chances.
Enrique is confident that the players will keep their focus to complete the job against Arsenal in Paris.
He said: “The players will not get carried away. I think we showed the mentality that we show in every match and that mentality is a great pleasure for me to see as coach of Paris Saint-Germain.
“I can’t complain because it was a game with a lot of strong emotions.
“It is difficult to play in that atmosphere, which was incredible. I think the goal early in the game was important for our confidence and I am happy because you can win or lose a game, but the mentality and ambition that our team shows is incredible.”
Enrique is confident that the players will control their emotions to advance in the tie.
He said: “They know how difficult it is to win a game like this. We need to try to control our emotions, and play our game in front of our supporters, make the most of the strength they give us. It will be tight, but we will be ready.
Dembele, who scored the only goal for PSG came off in the second half injured, Enrique is hoping he will be fit for the second leg.
He said: “I don’t know if he will be ready. If Ousmane can play it’s better, but we will still have a proper team even if he can’t play.
Dembele has scored 33 goals and recorded 12 assists for PSG in all competitions this season.
PSG have won five of their last seven away knockout stage games in the UEFA Champions League (L2), as many wins as in their previous 16 games in the competition (D2 L9).
The second leg encounter will take place at the Parc des Princes in Paris next Wednesday.
