“We started to defend too early”

Newcastle striker Alexander Isak commented on the draw result in the match of the 5th round of the Champions League group stage with Paris Saint-Germain (1:1). The forward scored a goal. PSG bounced back thanks to Kylian Mbappe's penalty goal in stoppage time.

“It’s a pity that we conceded in the last minutes. We started to defend too early, but it’s always unpleasant to concede in the end. I'm very proud of the team, it's very difficult to play here. At the end we got tired, but it’s a shame to miss out like that.

We always want to win, but this point will probably be important. There is something to fight for in the last round. The goal was a proud moment for me. I didn’t score in my first two matches, so this is an important moment for me,” the official UEFA website quotes Isak as saying.
