Paris Saint-Germain secured a 4-0 victory against Nice this Saturday at the Allianz Riviera in Matchday 27 of the 2025-2026 Ligue 1 season. After the match, PSG coach Luis Enrique spoke to Ligue1+.
Luis Enrique: “When you return to league play, it’s difficult.”
Did you need to react after the impressive win against Lens, and did you do it well?
Of course, it was difficult. Every time we play here, the matches are tough, and today I think we were very precise because it’s difficult to play mentally after the Champions League, that’s normal. We get very excited when we play a Champions League match, and then, when we return to league play, it’s difficult.
But Lens kept pressing, so for us, it was essential to win today, and we’re very happy. There are many positive things. There are many players who don’t get much playing time but who are taking advantage of this opportunity, like Beraldo, like Dro. I’m especially happy.
Luis Enrique: “It strengthens the team, and that’s why I’m very happy.”
Were you happy about Dro’s goal? What does that mean?
It’s not just about that goal; it’s always important. But for him to score his first goal is important. When I see the players working every day to improve the team, and for me as a coach, this type of victory is very important because it strengthens the team, and that’s why I’m very happy.
Luis Enrique: “It’s 10 days lost.”
Are everything going well for the end of the season?
That’s why we wait for these key moments every season; they are the most important moments. It’s time to finish strong and secure trophies, and that’s important for us. This is the last international break before the World Cup, but for us, as a team, it will be important to see how the players return. It’s a 10-day break, and we’ll prepare for the next match against Toulouse; after that, there’s the Champions League.
