Paris Saint-Germain beat Atlético Madrid 4-0 (video highlights PSG/Atlético Madrid) this Sunday at the Rose Bowl Stadium as part of Matchday 1 of the 2025 World Cup. Speaking to PSG TV, Paris coach Luis Enrique reflects on his team’s success.
Enrique: “We need to improve and extend this moment”.
“My feeling is that it was harder than it says on the scoreboard. It was very hot! We’re happy and we’re extending this positive run. It was a very good match.
The atmosphere? It gave us a lot of pleasure. It’s a very positive feeling to have that feeling, to feel the support of the fans. We’ve got to keep going. We’ve got to get better and extend this moment. It’s a different but very attractive competition.”
A fine victory for the club from the capital, who continue to build on their 5-0 victory in the Champions League final. A dip in form might have been expected after the fortnight’s break, but it’s clear that the Parisians are determined to take on this new competition with the same determination.
Obviously, after winning the domestic treble and the Champions League, PSG want to go for the world title. It’s going to be a long road, but by starting out in this way, the Parisians are already announcing their ambitions to their main rivals.
