Paris Saint-Germain defeated Tottenham 5-3 this Wednesday at the Parc des Princes in Matchday 5 of the 2025-2026 Champions League. After this victory, PSG coach Luis Enrique spoke to Canal+. He praised the midfield performance and criticized Lucas Hernandez (the 29-year-old defender) for his red card.
Luis Enrique: “The three midfielders were incredible.”
Is Vitinha a cut above the rest today?
“Of course, the whole team today, but especially the three midfielders, were incredible. They are top-level players. Warren Zaïre-Emery too. I can’t wait to see the team all together again and playing at full strength. I hope that happens as soon as possible.”
Luis Enrique: “This isn’t normal.”
There are some negative points with Mendes and Hernandez’s red card that you didn’t like, is that right?
Who does? It’s not the first time, and it’s strange, it’s not normal. You have to understand that it’s dangerous. There’s no bad intention, because I know Lucas very well, but you have to know how to control yourself.”
