Keown questions how PSG can be beaten as Arsenal exit Europe | OneFootball

Martin Keown has questioned how Paris Saint-Germain can be beaten after the French champions eliminated Arsenal from the Champions League.

PSG won 2-1 on the night to seal a 3-1 aggregate success over Arsenal in their semi-final, with Luis Enrique’s side set to face Inter Milan in the final.

The Ligue 1 giants have never won the Champions League before but will start as favourites in Munich later this month. PSG have eliminated three Premier League teams during the knockout stages and were the better side across both legs against Arsenal.

The Gunners had chances, notably from Declan Rice and Bukayo Saka, while Gianluigi Donnarumma was called into action with some superb saves. However, Arsenal struggled to deal with the attacking threat of the Parisians as goals from Fabian Ruiz and Achraf Hakimi sealed a famous win.

Reflecting at full-time, former Arsenal defender Keown called PSG a ‘complete side’ and questioned whether any side in Europe can stop their bid for a maiden Champions League crown.

“You have to hold your hands up to PSG. Hakimi, what a player he is,” Keown said to TNT Sports.

“Arsenal can be proud of what they have done this season in our second year back in the Champions League. But it has caught up with us that we don’t have a proper centre-forward, two of them are out tonight.

“For PSG they have no Neymar, no Messi, no Mbappe, all out the door, but now they are a complete side. I’ve not see forward players working so hard.

“How do you beat them? They have to be hot favourites to win this now. You have to give them credit.”
