The Honeymoon Is over for Unai Emery as PSG Fail to Perform in Le Classique

On Sunday evening, Unai Emery fell short in his first Le Classique match-up at the Parc des Princes, with Paris Saint-Germain held to a 0-0 draw with Olympique de Marseille.

PSG may remain undefeated at home, but drawing 0-0 against their bitter rivals is not the result that is going to have everyone believing he is the right coach to take this club to the next level.

Far from a classic match, new Marseille boss Rudi Garcia set up his team in a way to frustrate and limit the Parisians. The former Lille boss won the tactical battle, and Emery didn’t seem to have an answer to the 5-3-2.
