INTERVIEW
After the defeat comes the time for questions. And a trot in the heads of all Parisians this Monday morning: who is responsible for the defeat of PSG against Bayern Munich in the Champions League final? Mbappé, who did not transform a huge opportunity in the first half? Neymar, who went through his match? Tuchel, who wouldn't have made the right changes at the right time? "Everyone is responsible in a club", Michel Denisot slice at the microphone of Europe 1. Guest of Mathieu Belliard, the former president of the club of the capital in the 1990s returned to the defeat of the Parisians. In the opposing cages, "there was Neuer," he said.

Neuer is "both a soccer goalkeeper and a handball goalkeeper"
"Mbappé, Neymar and all the players are responsible for both victories and defeats," explains Michel Denisot, who recalls that even Marseille (the only French club to have won the Champions League, editor's note ) failed in its first final in 1991. "It is true that there was disappointment in the final result because the first half was extremely tight and tense," continues Michel Denisot. "We saw in the Bayern team the best goalkeeper in the world who was both a soccer goalkeeper and a handball goalkeeper," he said.

According to him, even if "Neymar and Mbappé did not have the best game of their lives last night", the presence of Neuer "was very important in the fact that Paris did not score any goals". Almost nine times out of ten, "they would have put the goal, but in the cages, there was Neuer. I think that at the time of the strike, it has a psychological impact on the shooter," said Michel Denisot. For the former leader of the PSG, the German goalkeeper is so strong that when an attacker releases his strike, "there is an additional question mark".
