Jordan Teze, the 26-year-old AS Monaco defender, spoke to Ligue1+ after Saturday’s 2-0 victory against Angers in Matchday 24 of the 2025-2026 Ligue 1 season. He was asked to look ahead to the match against Paris Saint-Germain next Friday (Matchday 25), a game he feels particularly determined as he returns to the Parc des Princes nine days after their Champions League playoff elimination (2-2, 5-4 on aggregate).
Teze: “A chance for revenge for us”
“It will be a good match, it’s a bit of a chance for revenge for us. Even if it’s different, because it’s Ligue 1 and not the Champions League. They’re doing well, but so are we, and we’re going there to win.”
It’s easy to understand that the Champions League elimination hasn’t been fully digested, especially since it was frustrating for Monaco, who were so close. There might be a particular desire to prevail this time, even if it won’t change past results. It’s also a victory that would be very important in the race for European qualification. Clearly, Monaco will return to the Parc des Princes with ambition and confidence.
It’s up to PSG to do better to avoid reliving past struggles. They’ll have to prevail despite the difficulties. Let’s hope PSG has regained the strength to match the intensity and the confidence to be clinical.
