As it does after each round of league matches, L’Équipe has drawn up its star players for the 34th day of Ligue 1 2024-2025, which was played over the weekend (find results and standings here). With their 3-13 victory over Auxerre (PSG/Auxerre video highlights) at the Parc des Princes, Paris Saint-Germain saw 3 of their players selected.
Marquinhos (31-year-old central defender and captain), Nuno Mendes (22-year-old left-back) and Khvicha Kvaratskhelia (24-year-old striker) are no surprises in this model team. Each was decisive, while the defenders were solid and Kvaratskhelia often very creative. They showed the seriousness and determination of PSG, even though they are already champions.
Perhaps other Parisians could have been present, like Achraf Hakimi (26-year-old right-back), but it’s also logical that other players should be highlighted in Ligue 1. There were some great performances on Saturday, including Gaëtan Laborde (31-year-old striker). The man from Nice, who scored twice, even won the PSG logo. Perhaps the sports paper’s vision for this summer’s mercato.
