PSG ultras send clear warning to Arsenal ahead of crunch Champions League clash

Paris Saint-Germain ultras have sent a message to after the French champions suffered their first Ligue 1 defeat of the season, just days before their semi-final meeting next Tuesday (April 29, 8pm).

Arsenal have reached the semi-finals of the prestigious European competition, having been knocked out at the quarter-final stage last season.

Mikel Arteta's side defeated 15-time champions 2-1 at the Santiago Bernabeu, after taking a 3-0 lead into the second leg in Spain.

It was a perfect night for the travelling fans, who saw their team beat Real Madrid 5-1 on aggregate. Some could even be heard chanting: "Hand it over, Real Madrid."

Arteta's team will now face the French champions, who have already overcome both Liverpool and Aston Villa in the previous rounds. A victory against PSG would see the Gunners reach their first European final since 2019.

However, PSG fans have attempted to unsettle their opponents ahead of the first leg at the Emirates Stadium next week. During the 3-1 defeat to Nice - where Luis Enrique fielded a full-strength team - a banner was displayed in the stands.

It translated to: "Take out Arsenal, take us to the final."

The likes of Khvicha Kvaratskhelia, Desire Doue, Nuno Mendes, Willian Pacho, Marquinhos, Ousmane Dembele, and Joao Neves all started for the Parisians. Despite registering 13 shots on target compared to Nice’s three, they were unable to avoid their first league loss of the season.

Fabian Ruiz netted the only goal for the hosts in what was a disappointing night for the French champions.

Speaking after the game, the PSG boss, Enrique said: "It's not a defeat that hurts. I would like to congratulate Nice, who played a very serious match. They defended very well, we had 30 chances.

"We would like to play the same match against Arsenal, to have 30 chances. We will do our best for the supporters. Nice offered an exceptional defensive performance, but we should have won this match when you look at the overall picture."
