PSG emerged victorious from an epic Champions League match against Barcelona, ending 6-4 on aggregate against the French giants.

But while Enrique may have been in a celebratory mood, when speaking to Kate Abdo, Thierry Henry, Jamie Carragher and Richards on CBS Sports, he had a bone to pick.
“I’m really mad at all of you,” he told the CBS Sports studio, which left everyone wondering why.
“You know why,” he said menacingly, and Richards knew exactly what was happening.
“Parenthesis, parentheses!” said Richards, who believed Barcelona would emerge victorious against PSG in their Champions League clash.
Enrique continued: “I can understand Henry because he supports Arsenal but Micah you were my idol. I thought you would have faith in my team.”
An overly dramatic Richards responded: “Luis, please! Accept my apology. I went against you, I’m sorry!”
Mercilessly, Enrique replied: “You’re guilty. Guilty man!”
Earlier this season, the PSG coach revealed his love for Richards and said he was his favorite pundit after a 3-0 win over AC Milan in the group stage.

Asked by Abdo about his favorites in October, Enrique replied: “To be honest, I’m a really big fan of Micah Richards and the way you play pranks with him. I laugh a lot.”
Richards replied: “Luis. I love you so much. Thank you so much. It’s an absolute pleasure.
However, the honeymoon may be over and the former Manchester City star could have some work to do to get back into Enrique’s good books.
PSG overturned their draw against Barcelona after losing 3-2 at the Parc des Princes in the first leg, winning 4-1 at the Camp Nou.
Raphinha even put Barca ahead before the Ligue 1 champions scored four unanswered goals after a red card for Ronald Araujo provided the pivotal moment in a European classic.
Former Barcelona star Ousmane Dembele scored first before Vitinha’s long-range strike was followed by a brace from Kylian Mbappe to book them a semi-final against Borussia Dortmund.
