This Saturday at 9:05 PM (CET), Paris Saint-Germain (1st) will face Troyes (16th) at the Parc des Princes as part of the 10th matchday of the 2026-2027 Ligue 1 season. In a press conference, ESTAC midfielder Iron Gomis (26) spoke about the upcoming encounter and their Parisian opponents.
Iron Gomis: “We want to get a result”
“We’re feeling confident. We know that not much is expected of us in this match against PSG, but we want to get a result and remain consistent in what we’re doing—and what we need to keep doing.”
For PSG, the key question will be what Troyes can do with the ball once they win it back. If ESTAC manages to find outlets in midfield, they could break through the pressure and force Paris to defend while retreating.
This is where the Parisian press could have a major impact on the game—by cutting off the initial passes and ensuring that every lost ball doesn’t turn into an opportunity for the opposition to advance up the pitch. Gomis emphasizes the importance of his team sticking to their established patterns of play. Their ability to play their way out under pressure will provide an early indication of what Troyes might be capable of achieving at the Parc.
