Paris Saint-Germain vs. Caen: Blanc eyes strong domestic finish

Apr 15, 2016 4:38:25 AM

Paris Saint-Germain boss Laurent Blanc urged his team to finish the domestic season strongly following their Champions League exit.

Laurent Blanc wants Paris Saint-Germain to refocus on their domestic ambitions as they prepare to host Caen on Saturday after their Champions League defeat to Manchester City.

The French champions lost 1-0 at the Etihad Stadium on Tuesday, resulting in a 3-2 aggregate defeat that put them out at the quarter-final stage for a fourth consecutive season.

Blanc accepted that the European exit was a massive blow to PSG's ambitions, but does not want his players to think the season is lost with the Ligue 1 title already secured and the chance for them to add the Coupe de France and Coupe de la Ligue crowns to seal back-to-back domestic trebles.
