'I think Arsenal fans will accept Paris have been the better team': Alan Shearer
5
Alan Shearer believes Arsenal fans will acknowledge that Paris Saint-Germain were the superior side in the first leg of their Champions League semi-final, which saw the French giants secure a 1-0 victory at the Emirates.
"I think Arsenal fans will accept Paris have been the better team. It's not an impossible task for Arsenal, but they know they're up against a good team with really good individuals who will make it tight in the second leg," Shearer has said.
The Gunners now face a challenging task in the second leg, which will take place on May 7 in Paris, with the tie still very much in the balance.
