Mbappe says ‘This is life’ after PSG’s dream farewell denied by Dortmund in Champions League

Paris Saint-Germain’s star forward Kylian Mbappe missed out on his dream farewell from the club after their unexpected exit from the Champions League at the hands of Borussia Dortmund. Mbappe, who is expected to join Real Madrid when his contract expires at the end of this season, had hoped to secure the elusive Champions League title for PSG. Despite being the favorites, PSG failed to overturn a one-goal deficit from the first leg, resulting in a 2-0 aggregate loss to Dortmund in the semi-final.

Mbappe, who had been the top scorer for PSG, was unable to find the back of the net in the crucial second leg against Dortmund. The loss has been a major disappointment for the club, who have invested heavily in their pursuit of Champions League success. This defeat adds to a series of heartbreaking exits for PSG in the knockout stages of the Champions League, including the infamous 6-1 loss to Barcelona in 2017.

Despite the setbacks, PSG’s coach Luis Enrique remains optimistic about the team’s future. The squad underwent significant changes before this season, and the young players gained valuable experience throughout the competition. While Mbappe may soon depart, PSG is committed to building a competitive team capable of challenging for major honors. The club has already secured the Ligue 1 title and will now focus on the French Cup final against Lyon in Mbappe’s farewell game.

The loss against Dortmund highlighted PSG’s lack of experience at the highest level of European competition. With an average age of 24, PSG’s starting lineup was one of the youngest in a Champions League semi-final in recent years. The team’s captain Marquinhos emphasized the positives from this season and believes the squad can build on their progress moving forward. However, PSG will face significant challenges in replacing Mbappe and strengthening their squad for future Champions League campaigns.

Despite the disappointment of missing out on a Champions League title, Mbappe remains determined to achieve success in the competition. The French forward has been a standout performer for PSG, but his impending departure will leave a void in the team’s attacking lineup. PSG will need to invest in a suitable replacement for Mbappe and continue their quest for European glory under the guidance of coach Luis Enrique. As Mbappe bids farewell to PSG, he will be aiming to fulfill his dream of lifting the Champions League trophy with his new club, Real Madrid.
