Paris Saint-Germain lost 2-1 to Paris FC this Sunday at the Stade Jean Bouin in Matchday 34 of the 2025-2026 Ligue 1 season. After the match, PSG coach Luis Enrique spoke at a press conference.
Enrique: “I think it’s not too serious.”
What’s the latest news regarding Ousmane Dembélé?
I have nothing to say about Ousmane; we’ll have to wait until tomorrow (Monday) to find out. I think it’s fatigue. What we can talk about today is just speculation. But I think it’s not too serious; we’ll know more tomorrow.
What are your takeaways from this match?
I don’t take anything positive away from this match. When you play football without ambition and intensity, these things happen. I knew before the match how difficult it is to play without a clear objective, but I’m still a little disappointed. I can understand all the players, but for a PSG player, things have to be different. I expect much more from my players.
What did you think of the organization surrounding the celebration of this 14th French league title?
I’m not interested in this controversy. Not at all. We are champions, and I celebrated this title two weeks ago. This celebration is irrelevant.
Enrique: “They had intentions, but without intensity and ambition.”
Are you annoyed by your team’s performance tonight?
You can lose, it happens, but I expect more from my players. That’s how you have to be professional. They had intentions, but without intensity and ambition, it’s difficult to play football. It’s difficult to play a match like this, but they have to overcome it.
The last part of the season will be more complicated than the previous one. Last year, we played in the Coupe de France final, which kept us focused and motivated. But now, there are 13 days left before the most important match in our history. Surely, we won’t need a coach to motivate the players. Today, we did. I’m disappointed.
Luis Enrique: “We’ll play a little match amongst ourselves next weekend.”
What’s the plan for the two weeks before the Champions League final?
We’re going to try to do a bit of everything. Rest, physically and mentally, but also work. We’ll play a little match amongst ourselves next weekend and we’ll try to increase our football workload a bit.
Is this the beginning of real competition in Paris, at least in the derby for you? Is the derby spirit starting in Paris?
Please…
