This Saturday, Paris Saint-Germain hosted Le Havre for Matchday 13 of Ligue 1 and won 3-0. After the match, Lucas Chevalier, the 24-year-old Parisian goalkeeper, spoke to PSG TV about the victory.
Chevalier: “We won three-nil, we didn’t concede a goal, and we stay top of the table.”
“It was a really tough match. Three-nil, from the outside you might think it was a comfortable win, but that wasn’t the case throughout the entire game. We were put under pressure, but we know that matches after the winter break are always difficult. So yes, I’m happy. We won three-nil, we didn’t concede a goal, and we stay top of the table.
Everyone is happy, and that gives us a positive outlook for the future.” Scoring goals, keeping clean sheets, staying at the top of the table… We’ve already played a lot of matches since August and there are still many to go, so we’ll recover well to prepare for the next match, again and again.”
A positive result for this Parisian team, most of whose players were returning from the international break. Winning under these circumstances, especially before a Champions League match, is never easy. But the victory was crucial to regaining the top spot in the league and sending a clear message to their direct rivals.
Now, their focus can turn to the Champions League this Wednesday. After the 2-1 home defeat against Bayern Munich, it will be essential to secure a victory against Tottenham. The Parisians seem ready for this crucial stage, which remains one of the most important to ensure qualification for the next round.
