The dog headed five balls towards bins labelled with each club’s logos, and it headed three into PSG’s bins, while two went astray, suggesting a 3-0 win for the French side.

Four of those balls bounced off Arsenal’s bin before either entering PSG’s bin or going astray, indicating possible ‘almost’ situations and missed chances costing the Gunners.

Enrique speaks about Arsenal not rotating

PSG boss Luis Enrique was quizzed during his post-match conference about what he thinks about his opponent on Wednesday, not rotating for their match on Saturday.

“Mr. Arteta has his way of working, Mr. Enrique has his. I don’t know which is better. They had rest periods when we didn’t. Apart from the result, all the objectives I had set were achieved,” he said, as quoted by GFFN.

“Well, I don't know. They won the league, so they have the luxury to do that. We haven't because we still have a lot to do in the Premier League…” he said as quoted by arsenal.com.
“We have a lot to do, yeah, because mathematically we are not qualified, we haven't earned the right to finish second yet. So we still have a lot to do.”

Five Premier League teams will play in the Champions League next season and with three matches left, teams from second to seventh place can still pick any of the four spots left.

Injury news for PSG vs Arsenal

The French side have no new injury concerns and are still hopeful that Ousmane Dembele, who limped off in the first leg, can be fit to start or play a part in the second leg.

Arsenal defender Jurrien Timber was ruled out of the loss to Bournemouth due to an unspecified injury, while captain Martin Odegaard, despite playing 90 minutes on Saturday, is a doubt for the second leg.
