Paris Saint-Germain beat Rennes 3-1 (video summary PSG/Rennes) this Friday at the Parc des Princes as part of Matchday 6 of Ligue 1 2024-2025. After the match, Paris coach Luis Enrique (54) spoke to beIN SPORTS. The Spaniard pointed out that the win was a fine one, but also that the end was a bit messy after the changes. Finally, the Champions League returns this Tuesday against Arsenal.
Luis Enrique “It was a strong match”.
What are your thoughts on the win?
First of all, I think it was a very complete match. There’s a big part where there’s a lot of pressure on the defense. We created a lot of chances – we only scored three, but we could have scored more. It was a strong match.
Luis Enrique: “The substitutes didn’t do the job we’d hoped.”
I had good moments of joy until the 60th minute, and then it was more complicated?
Maybe the substitutes didn’t get the job done. I had an intention when I made these substitutions. I think it was the whole team that didn’t manage their substitutions properly. On the whole, we’re a strong, close-knit team, but in the final minutes we came up a little short.
Luis Enrique “It’s a constant and renewed effort. ”
And now it’s on to the Champions League?
It’s a constant and renewed effort. That’s what you expect from a competition like the Champions League. We’ll be playing against another favourite, and it’s going to be an extremely stimulating match. We’re going to prepare well for this match.
