Zlatan Ibrahimovic bemoaned his side's tactics after Paris Saint-Germain fell to a 1-0 defeat and were knocked out of the Champions League by Manchester City on Tuesday.

Kevin De Bruyne scored the only goal of the game to ensure City reached the semi-final of Europe's premier competition for the first time in their history.

Despite this, Ibrahimovic believes PSG are a better team and instead blamed Laurent Blanc's tactics for "giving away" the game.

"In the first half we played with a new system and what happened, happened," he told the club's website. "If it had gone well, nobody would say anything, and now people will say we gave it away.

"The second half was better, when we reverted to our normal tactics, but we gave away two games. I think we are a better team, but we lost tonight and we drew 2-2 at home, so all the best to Manchester City."

PSG began the game with a makeshift back three, and were missing a number of important players including David Luiz and Blaise Matuidi.

Following the injury to Thiago Motta shortly before half-time, Blanc shuffled his pack to revert to a back four, moving Serge Aurier to centre-back with Thiago Silva. Marquinhos and Adrien Rabiot filled in at central midfield, but it was not enough to stop De Bruyne winning the tie in the second half.

Ibrahimovic has been reportedly linked with a move to England in the summer, with his PSG contract expiring at the end of the season.

The 34-year-old striker was keen to keep his cards close to his chest on Tuesday night, but it is understood he would be willing to join Manchester United.
