David Luiz had conceded that Paris Saint-Germain had to work hard to beat APOEL in the Champions League on Tuesday.
Laurent Blanc’s side needed an 87th minute winner from forward Edinson Cavani to secure a 1-0 victory at the GSP Stadium and Luiz was impressed by PSG’s Cypriot opposition.
“It was a very tough match,” he told UEFA.com. “APOEL have a strong team, with fantastic defensive organisation.
“It was difficult for us to create scoring opportunities, but at the last moment Cavani made a great movement and scored a great goal for us.”
