In the 18th round of Ligue 1, Paris Saint-Germain hosted LOSC at the Parc des Princes (3-0). Speaking to PSG TV, 28-year-old striker Ousmane Dembélé reflected on the victory and his exceptional goal.
Dembélé: “We’re satisfied with these three points.”
“These are three important points. We know we’re second in the league, and with this win we’re temporarily first. It was a difficult match against a good Lille team, but we responded well and we’re satisfied with these three points.”
Dembélé: “We’re going there to win.”
The second goal? On Désiré’s pass, I wanted to shoot first time. I miscontrolled the ball a bit, and I also saw that the goalkeeper had moved off his line a little, so I tried a lob, and it went in. Now, there’s an important match coming up. We know that a win would practically guarantee our qualification, so we’re going there to win.
An exceptional goal for an important victory, especially after their elimination in the Round of 32 of the Coupe de France. PSG needed to get back to winning ways to put themselves in the best possible position for the return of the Champions League, and that’s exactly what they did.
For his part, Ousmane Dembélé once again confirms his status as a Ballon d’Or winner with a goal that will go viral. All eyes are now on the European Cup, with the primary objective of qualifying for the knockout stages.
