Trapp Apologise To PSG Team Mates

Paris Saint-Germain goalkeeper Kevin Trapp apologised to his team-mates following a howler that gifted Bordeaux an equaliser in the 2-2 draw on Friday.

Going into the match, Trapp had kept four consecutive clean sheets, but his mistake allowed Wahbi Khazri to steal the ball and tap in a demoralising equaliser for PSG.

And speaking to reporters after the match, the former Eintracht Frankfurt man admitted his mistake, bemoaning the life of a goalkeeper.

"I do not know what to say, [Bordeaux's equaliser] is my fault, that's certain," the 25-year-old said.

"It can happen, this is the life of a goalkeeper. When you are a goalkeeper and you make a mistake, it's always a goal for the opponent. I just have to apologise to my team.

"It is now finished, I am going to think about that this evening but from tomorrow I am going to concentrate on [the Champions League clash with Malmo on] Tuesday."

And speaking about the mistake, Trapp admitted it was hard to explain.

"There are things which we cannot explain," the goalkeeper added.

"I controlled the ball, I listened to Thiago Motta, after that i can't explain my mistake.

"It was 2-2, normally we have to win this match because we had many opportunities to score. I can do much more and you can expect it from me on Tuesday now in Champions ' League."

But despite the errors, PSG manager Laurent Blanc lept to the defence of his goalkeeper, suggesting that Trapp shares his footballing philosophy.

"The Bordeaux goalkeeper also made a mistake. Keepers make mistakes," Blanc told beIN Sports.

"He is a keeper who has a philosophy that is similar to mine. When you takes risks, any uncertainty can lead to a goal.

"But I hope he has the personality to do the same again next time, only with more efficiency, and that could be as early as Tuesday."

Blanc's side remain top of Ligue 1 and are due to take on Malmo on Tuesday, boasting a four-point cushion ahead of the remainder of league fixtures this weekend.

Though the PSG boss conceded "We have not played a great game.

"We lost a lot of possession and that is not like us. But at the end of the first half, we could have had one more.

"I was convinced that with this style of game, we could keep all three points."
