Late Sunday, the Parc des Princes was buzzing with excitement for Matchday 4 of Ligue 1, a match between Paris Saint-Germain and RC Lens. Despite three injured players, the Rouge et Bleu won 2-0 thanks to a brace from Bradley Barcola. Florian Thauvin, the Sang et Or attacking midfielder, spoke to beIN SPORTS journalists to reflect on the defeat.

Thauvin: “I deserved to have the penalty”

Do you have to give more than usual?

It’s true that they’re a team that controls the ball and they had possession the entire match. We were grouped at the back and ran a lot.

It’s difficult to stay focused when you win the ball back. With a little more personality, we could have hoped for better tonight, because we created a lot of chances. Their talent made the difference, as with the first goal.

Tell us about the penalty on you, perhaps?

I haven’t seen the footage again, but what I felt at the time was a penalty, it was clear and unambiguous. I was caught and I went through, then he caught me. They’re good referees, but to err is human, but in that case, I deserved to have the penalty.

At that point, it was 1-0, and if we came back, it’s important for our confidence; it can give us a boost. With confidence, we’re capable of anything.
