Arsene Wenger pinpoints reason for PSG 'collapse' in Man City defeat


Manchester City are in pole position to reach their first Champions League final. Pep Guardiola's side hit back to snatch a 2-1 victory in France on Wednesday night. However, former Arsenal boss Arsene Wenger has his assessment for the City's victory. Speaking to beIN SPORTS, the Frenchman said: "I must say in the second half PSG were protective and not progressive any more. Is it because they were not physically capable? After 1-1, they collapsed completely. They become emotional and aggressive in a stupid way." Wenger added: "What was interesting is that you could see that when it was 1-1, PSG mentally collapsed. This is the consequence of a team losing eight games in the league. This has an impact. When it's 1-1 the team knows they have lost many games, they carry that. It's not like the season before when they were unbeatable in the league. "You could see the confidence dropped considerably and the mental impact when Man City equalised, for the semi-final of a Champions League, was too big."
