Coach Enrique achieved 50 Champions League wins faster than any other coach in history. |
The thrilling victory gave PSG a huge advantage and helped Enrique surpass Pep Guardiola's record. According to Opta , Enrique became the fastest coach in history to reach 50 Champions League wins, achieving it in 77 matches with Barcelona and PSG. Previously, Guardiola held the record after 80 matches while managing Bayern Munich in 2015.
At their home ground, Parc des Princes, PSG displayed formidable attacking power. A brace from Khvicha Kvaratskhelia and Ousmane Dembele, along with a goal from Joao Neves, gave the home team a slender advantage going into the second leg.
However, Bayern Munich still had a chance to turn the situation around, as goals from Harry Kane, Michael Olise, Dayot Upamecano, and Luis Diaz kept hope alive for the German side.
For PSG, this victory opens up the prospect of reaching the final in Budapest, Hungary. If they overcome Bayern, the French champions could face Arsenal or Atletico Madrid to defend their title.
As for Enrique, he continues to solidify his position as one of Europe's top coaches. The Spanish manager has won the Champions League twice, with Barcelona in 2015 and PSG in 2015. Meanwhile, Guardiola boasts three titles, with two with Barcelona and one with Manchester City.
Having grown up under the influence of Johan Cruyff's philosophy, Enrique and Guardiola share a close relationship but also a subtle rivalry. And with the record he has just set, Enrique is gradually stepping out of the shadow of his illustrious colleague, asserting his own mark on the highest level of European football.
