Frank Lampard says PSG have been ‘taught a lesson’ by Arsenal
Frank Lampard offered a scathing assessment of PSG’s first-half display after witnessing the French side flounder against Arsenal in the Champions League.
Luis Enrique brought his new-look side to the Emirates full of hope and little expectation having begun their season in fine form.
However, the home side abruptly upended their plans with two goals in a dominant first period. Kai Havertz opened the scoring with a brave header before Bukayo Saka doubled the lead with a wide free-kick that evaded everyone and trickled past Gigi Donnarumma.
Lampard, who lifted the European Cup with Chelsea in 2012, believes that the French champions were taught lesson and praised the physicality of Mikel Arteta’s team.
‘It’s difficult for them, they have been taught a bit of a lesson by an Arsenal team that have been better physically, more aggressive on and off the ball and faster than them in their game. It’s been hard.’ He said on Amazon Prime.
