This Friday, as part of Matchday 19 of Ligue 1 2025-2026, Paris Saint-Germain faced Auxerre at the Stade Abbé-Deschamps. Auxerre striker Lassine Sinayoko (26 years old) spoke to Ligue1+ after PSG’s 1-0 victory.
Sinayoko: “We get punished for an avoidable mistake.”
The same frustration weekend after weekend?
“That’s it, it’s extremely frustrating because we see that we can compete against the top teams in the league. Once again, we get punished for an avoidable mistake. That’s top-level football; we have to go out and get points now. That’s the most important thing.”
Sinayoko: “We’re convinced it will eventually pay off.”
What were the instructions when you’re 17th?
We had to be fearless and play our own game. We knew that if we sat deep against a team like that, they would find our weaknesses, just like they do against everyone. We tried to press them high up the pitch, but unfortunately, we weren’t sharp enough or clinical against a team like that, and we paid the price.
You don’t doubt it?
We’re convinced it will pay off in the end. We have a quality group of players, a quality squad, and all of that will allow us to get points.
