BRUSSELS (Reuters) - Finding the right balance of individual talent and tactical discipline remains a challenge for Paris St Germain coach Unai Emery, even after the side's convincing Champions League win at Anderlecht on Wednesday. The 4-0 success in the Belgian capital means the Parisians have won all three of their Group B games and are well on their way to qualifying for the knockout phase.

"We were happy to take the three points. Our goal is to finish first of our group," Emery said after the match, while emphasising that the acquisition of Neymar and Kylian Mbappe had forced changes that were still being bedded in. "We are like a new team, we need to progress, to improve on the details. We didn't master the game in the way we wanted to," he added.
