Arsenal laugh, PSG cry...Final goal ace hamstring injury → Chances are high that he will miss the 2nd round of UCL semifinals
Paris Saint-Germain (PSG) caught Arsenal in the first leg of the Champions League semifinals, but they are worried about the second leg. This is because ace Usman Dembele is likely to be unable to play due to injury.

Uman Dembele is a key resource for the team, scoring the winning goal in the first leg of the semifinal on the 30th. We have to wait and see for the injury, but for Arsenal, we can take a chance.

After the match, PSG coach Luis Enrique said, "I don't know about Dembele's injury. It is scheduled to be examined tomorrow. "It's not a serious injury, it's a very minor injury," he said. "But I think it's unclear whether he'll play in the second game or not."

Paris Saint-Germain (PSG) caught Arsenal in the first leg of the Champions League semifinals, but they are worried about the second leg. This is because ace Usman Dembele is likely to be unable to play due to injury.

Usman Dembele is a key resource for the team as he scored the winning goal in the first leg of the UEFA Champions League semi-final between PSG and Arsenal on the 30th. We have to wait and see for the injury, but for Arsenal, we can take a chance.

After the match, PSG coach Luis Enrique said of Dembele's injury, "I don't know. It is scheduled to be examined tomorrow. "It's not a serious injury, it's a very minor injury," he said. "But I think it's unclear whether he'll play in the second game or not."




Dembele scored four minutes into the game and contributed to the victory. He showed a clean finish in front of the goal, and the opposing goalkeeper was unable to use his hands.

However, PSG's offense lost its sharpness as Dembele was replaced by an injury at the end of the game. Arsenal were able to close the game without losing any more points.

If Usman Dembele's hamstring injury is serious, Arsenal should try to come from behind in the second game.

Arsenal manager Mikel Arteta can play relatively aggressively in this second leg. Dembele's departure is likely to eliminate the explosive and decisive power of the opponent's offense.

Dembele is a striker who has scored 33 goals and 12 assists in 45 official games this season. He is known as the ace of PSG and is good at creating creative opportunities as well as scoring goals. Given that he is a player who can change the flow of the game, it should be considered that more than half of PSG's power will disappear if he fails to play in the second game.

Some say that because of this, Arteta should take more aggressive tactics. However, it may be wise to maintain the current stable tactics. This is because PSG's offensive combination consisting of Khvicha Kvaratshelia, Desiree Doue and Bradley Barcola is still powerful.




If Arsenal deploys a counterattack, there is a high risk of collapse due to PSG's fast-tempo attack. Therefore, Arteta is expected to play in the second game with a strategy to seek counterattacks while having defensive stability similar to the first game.
