'Lot of things need to change' - Thierry Henry admits PSG were 'much superior' to Arsenal in first leg of Champions League semi-final

Mikel Arteta's side face an uphill task if they want to qualify for the Champions League final after losing the first leg 1-0 of their semi-final tie at the Emirates on Tuesday night. An early goal from Ousmane Dembele did the damage, although the visitors also hit the woodwork twice in an impressive showing.

Arsenal defender William Saliba has admitted PSG made the Gunners "suffer" but has said he's hopeful the team can turn things around. Former striker Henry feels Arsenal will have to make plenty of changes if they are to prevail in Paris and says Luis Enrique's side will be even stronger in front of their own fans at the Parc des Princes.

He said on CBS Sports: "PSG were much superior, for me, in this match. There are a lot of things that need to change for Arsenal to beat PSG. You never know what can happen. I think of PSG against FC Barcelona last season . Everyone thought it was over, but they [Paris] ultimately won the return leg easily."

Only two teams have reached the final of the Champions League after losing the first leg of their semi-final tie at home - Ajax in 1995-96 and Tottenham in 2018-19.

The Gunners are set to face Bournemouth in the Premier League on Saturday before heading to France for the second leg of their tie with PSG on Wednesday.
