Luis Enrique 'worried' about PSG's UCL chances after wasteful PSV draw

Paris Saint-Germain's stuttering start in this season's Champions League continued as they were held to a 1-1 draw by PSV Eindhoven on Tuesday, leading coach Luis Enrique to admit he was "worried" about his team's prospects.

The Dutch champions led through a Noa Lang strike just after the half-hour mark at the Parc des Princes, but Achraf Hakimi equalised early in the second half.

Nevertheless, this was a game PSG should have won given the chances they created, but once again they struggled to put the ball in the net, a recurring problem in Europe.

"It is difficult to accept the result after a game like that, but we already knew that football is often unfair," Luis Enrique said. "We played well throughout and were better than PSV."

PSG's frustration was summed up when they were awarded a penalty in injury time after a challenge on Marco Asensio, only for the decision to be overturned on review.

The French giants had 26 attempts on goal to their opponents' eight. They have now scored just twice in their last five matches in the Champions League, with the other an own-goal against Girona last month.

That run goes back to last season's semi-final against Borussia Dortmund which they lost 2-0 on aggregate.

"I think it is obvious that we created a lot more chances than our opponents and we deserved to win the game," Luis Enrique added.

After a narrow 1-0 victory against Girona and a 2-0 defeat away to Arsenal in their first two matches in the new-look format of the competition, PSG have just four points from a possible nine.

There are still five games to play, but they have Atletico Madrid at home next followed by Bayern Munich away, suggesting things will not get any easier.

"It is the worst group (fixtures) and we need to be prepared to improve what we can and keep going. But yes, it is difficult and of course I am worried," the coach added.

PSV, meanwhile, are still winless, having previously lost away to Juventus before drawing with Sporting.

That shows how big a step up playing in Europe is for the Dutch side, who have a perfect record after nine games in this season's Eredivisie.

"The players did a great job tonight and I am really proud of them to be leaving here with a point," said PSV coach Peter Bosz.
