We Played 10 Times Better Than Madrid - Di Maria

We played 10 times better than Real Madrid - Di Maria


The former Merengue star claimed the French champions were the superior side at the Bernabeu on Tuesday, although Nacho's goal decided the encounter in the hosts' favour
Paris Saint-Germain winger Angel Di Maria felt the French champions were "10 times better" than Real Madrid despite their 1-0 defeat.

A solitary goal from Madrid substitute Nacho settled Tuesday's encounter at the Santiago Bernabeu, meaning Rafa Benitez's men advanced to the last 16 of the Champions League.

Both Adrien Rabiot and Di Maria struck the woodwork for PSG and the Argentina international bemoaned the visitors' lack of fortune on the night.

He told UEFA.com: "We delivered our best match of the season. An outstanding display. We made a mistake and were punished.


"We played 10 times better than Real. We’ll carry on that way."

The defeat ended PSG's unbeaten run in the 2015-16 season, but Laurent Blanc's side will join Madrid in the next stage of Europe's elite club competition if they win at Malmo in their next Group A outing

Vardy: It Was Easy To Reject Arenal Move

    Jamie Vardy says it was easy for him to reject a move to Arsenal, insisting both his head and his heart told him to stay at Leicester City. After playing a crucial role in last season's surprising Premier League title win, the England international was the subject of a bid from the Gunners which triggered his £22 million release clause. Instead, the striker opted to remain at the King Power Stadium and signed a new deal with the Foxes. And Vardy, 29, says it was an easy decision to make. “I was in a hotel room [in Chantilly] for so many hours of every day with nothing to do. You had a lot of time on your hands," he told The Guardian . “I am not going to beat around the bush – every time I thought about it, and every aspect of it I thought about, both my head and my heart were saying to stay at Leicester, which is why I made my decision to stay. “There were loads of reasons. You get that much time to think about, every single thing down to the tea lady. You think about w...
