Zapping Onze Mondial EXCLUSIVE: Moussa Diaby’s “Little Brother” Interview!
Without glossing over, Paris Saint-Germain are already taking a big step towards the Ligue 1 title! With defeats to AS Monaco and OGC Nice, the Parisians can extend a significant gap at the top of the standings during their matchday 18 clash against RC Lens. In Bolarte, the reigning French champions opened the scoring thanks to Bradley Barkola in the first period, with Kylian Mbappe widening the score late in the match. But despite numerical superiority during the second half, Luis Enrique’s men suffered especially to maintain this scoreline. And when the block only fell back against Lensois, the Spanish technician made just one change, taking off Carlos Soler to bring on Fabian Ruiz.
“I am very satisfied with the whole match”
He was logically questioned about this surprising tactical choice, but got his payback: “I really liked what I saw and, except for Carlos Soler, I didn’t want to change. But with Carlos Soler’s yellow card and if something unexpected happened, We would have finished at 10. Otherwise, I would not have kicked anyone out, I am very happy with what I saw, said the former Barça man. I am very satisfied with the whole match, I was happy with it start to finish. Above all, I think my team is able to be competitive in every match and especially in high intensity and high level matches. Today was no exception, so the first half was very good, knowing that Lens is a team. It Presses very well. It’s very difficult to play at their home and I also liked the second half-time, I think you want madness and I’ll leave it to you. What I want is control, creating scoring chances, Scoring (. ..). I remind you that PSG has not won in Lens for 10 years and this time it is a victory,” he said.
In sum
Paris Saint-Germain coach Luis Enrique explained his management of the group during yesterday’s Ligue 1 clash against RC Lens. He made just one change, removing Carlos Soler for Fabian Ruiz.
