Blanc: PSG deserved to beat Monaco




The former France boss has lamented his side's
profligacy in front of goal after they created a host
of opportunities following Radamel Falcao's
equaliser
Paris Saint-Germain coach Laurent Blanc has voiced his
disappointment with his side's 1-1 draw against
Monaco on Sunday as he feels the reigning champions
deserved more.
Zlatan Ibrahimovic gifted PSG an early lead with his
second goal of the season, but Radamel Falcao levelled
the scoring again after 20 minutes of play and Blanc
was left to rue his side's profligacy in front of goal for
the remainder of the encounter.
"Without taking anything away from Monaco, because
they played well, I think that if we analyse the game
and our numbers of chances, we deserved to win,"
Blanc said at a press conference.
"I think we needed to be more efficient with taking
opportunities. When you have so many chances,
scoring only once is not good enough to secure the
points at this level.
"But I have to say that to get so many chances in such
a game is not easy and the players deserve credit for
creating the opportunities.
"It is a real disappointment though because if we had
taken just one more of our many chances, I think we
would have won the game without any problem."
PSG sit second in the Ligue 1 table, trailing leaders
Monaco by two points.
