Paris Saint-Germain hosted AJ Auxerre this Saturday evening, for matchday 6 of Ligue 1. This match came at a time when the team’s focus was already somewhat on the Champions League, with the away game in Barcelona coming up on Wednesday, and the need to avoid further injuries. With a starting XI that was reshuffled due to injuries, the Red and Blues won 2-0 after dominating the game, and had to make two substitutions, one as a precaution and the other due to an injury sustained during the match. Lucas Beraldo, the defender for the Parisian club, spoke to Ligue1+ after the match to discuss this victory and his goal:
Lucas Beraldo: “We were very focused and determined.”
How are you feeling after that head injury?
I’m fine. I saw the doctor, but I think we played a very good match. It was a great evening.
What were your thoughts on this match?
I think every match is prepared in its own way, and differently. We had to build on our performance against Marseille, and we were very focused and determined.
We can imagine you’re happy…
I’m very happy, it was fantastic. I hope we can continue like this.
