The Paris Saint-Germain team bus is said to have left Kylian Mbappe following their Champions League loss to Borussia Dortmund in Germany.

PSG struggled against Dortmund in the first leg of the semifinal match, and the German team prevailed thanks to a goal from Niclas Fullkrug in the first half. Mbappe and his colleagues were unhappy on the pitch as they were unable to overcome Dortmund’s strong defence despite the Parisians’ concentrated attempts in the second half.

Mbappe got several opportunities against Dortmund but was denied by the post which added to his disappointment. However, his manager remains upbeat that his troops can turn around the tie with the decisive leg set to be played in Paris next week.

“In the last two rounds, they had the home game as their second game, whereas it was the other way round for us,” he said. “Now it’s a different and new scenario, we’ll have the crowd on our side in the second leg. I would have liked to create the chances we have created, but you have to be effective to score. We’ll see what version we show in Paris.”

Next Tuesday, a revitalised Dortmund squad that eliminated Atletico Madrid in the quarterfinals will test PSG’s resilience in the face of rising pressure and high tensions. Since his team has no domestic obligations over the weekend, Enrique has the entire week to get his team ready for the match.
