Paris Saint-Germain coach Luis Enrique insisted he was "proud" of his side despite what he called an "unfair" defeat at the hands of Borussia Dortmund in their Champions League semi-final.
PSG missed out on reaching next month's final at Wembley after losing Tuesday's semi-final second leg 1-0 at home to the Germans and going out of the competition 2-0 on aggregate.
"My feeling is of sadness. It can't be anything else. We didn't manage to fulfil our objective," Luis Enrique, who led Barcelona to Champions League glory in 2015, told reporters.
He pointed out that PSG hit the frame of the goal four times in the second half of Tuesday's game, having also struck the post in last week's 1-0 defeat in the first leg in Germany.
"I don't think we were inferior over the tie. We hit the woodwork six times. The curious thing about football is that sometimes it's not fair -- we had 31 shots and did not score a single goal.
