Merino Confident Arsenal Can Overturn PSG Deficit

Posted : 30 April 2025

Mikel Merino remains optimistic about Arsenal’s chances of reaching the Champions League final despite their 1-0 defeat to Paris Saint-Germain in the first leg of the semifinal. Ousmane Dembele's goal at the Emirates proved to be the difference, while Merino himself had a goal disallowed for offside early in the second half.

 

PSG came close to doubling their lead late on, hitting the crossbar, but the narrow scoreline keeps Arsenal in contention heading into the return leg.

 

Merino, who returned to midfield in the absence of the suspended Thomas Partey, expressed confidence in the team’s ability to respond in the second leg. He pointed to Arsenal’s previous away wins, including their impressive 2-1 victory at the Bernabeu, as evidence that they can triumph in Paris.

 

Emphasizing the squad’s unwavering mindset, he said the result changes nothing and that their mentality is always focused on winning, regardless of the circumstances.

 

With Partey set to return for the second leg, Merino may shift to a more advanced role as Arsenal aim to overturn the deficit. Both clubs are striving for their first Champions League title, adding further intensity to an already high-stakes clash.

 

Arsenal’s belief and resilience, shown in past away performances, will be crucial as they look to defy the odds at the Parc des Princes next week.
