Former Dutch footballer Wesley Sneijder has warned Arsenal to be cautious ahead of their Champions League final clash against Paris Saint-Germain. He believes that if the Londoners fail to maintain absolute defensive discipline, Paris Saint-Germain could repeat a high-scoring result similar to the five unanswered goals they put past Inter last season. This is reported by Goal.com .
Mikel Arteta's side reached their first Champions League final since 2006 after a hard-fought victory over Atletico Madrid in the semi-finals. Currently competing for the Premier League title, Arsenal will face Luis Enrique's Paris Saint-Germain in the decisive match on May 30.
In an interview with Hard Rock Bet, Sneijder acknowledged the quality of Arsenal's defenders but expressed concern over their vulnerability on the flanks. According to him, Paris Saint-Germain is particularly strong on the left wing, which could pose a serious problem for Arsenal. He also emphasized the importance of Declan Rice tracking back to support the defense.
The former midfielder gave his prediction for the final: "I think this game could end 3-0 or 4-0 in favor of Paris Saint-Germain. However, if Arsenal plays perfectly in defense and wins 1-0, it would be a huge achievement for them. Keeping a clean sheet against Paris Saint-Germain is a very difficult task."
