Hakimi ‘We wanted to make our mark on the championship and win this game.’
Are you the man of the match today?
I’m very satisfied with this match, individually and collectively we played a great game.
What made the difference today?
Especially the team’s attitude from the start of the game. It was a very difficult match. They’re a very good team, they’re in second place, they’ve got quality. We wanted to get into the game properly. We wanted to make our mark on the league and win this game.
Hakimi ‘We want to keep up this momentum’.
Nice assist on the first goal?
It’s a team effort, we all know each other well. We look for depth, and I saw where my free colleague was, so I sent him in, and we’ve already done that in the Champions League.
Paris finishes mid-season without defeat?
As you’ve already said, we’re on a good run. We need to keep it up and now we need to think about the cup, another competition we want to win. We want to keep this momentum going.
