Paris Saint-Germain coach Luis Enrique stressed that the return leg against Bayern in the Champions League semi-finals, following their 5-4 triumph at the Parc des Princes, will be a real challenge.

The European champions played a spectacular match against the Bavarian giants in the first leg, and Bayern managed to outplay the "saints" in Paris in the group stage.

"Bayern showed their best sides, in attack and defence. They are the toughest opponent I have faced during my time in Paris. I am happy with the victory in the first leg, incredible, because even if we had lost it would not have been unfair. In football at the level at which the match was played, the details decide everything," said Luis Enrique.

Bayern took the lead and then lost by 5.2, and had a chance to go to Munich undefeated.

"It was a unique football match. I usually spend three hours re-watching a match, but I analyzed this one with Bayern for a full five hours. Bayern are incredible, both in attack and defense. There was not a single flaw in defense - and that's what made the match magnificent," said the PSG coach, despite nine goals being scored.

"Look at how Harry Kane defends, incredible. Fortunately, our striker Ousmane Dembele also defended very well. Incredible, really! We have to congratulate both teams and enjoy such a game," Luis Enrique told RMC Sport.
