Paris Saint-Germain hosted RC Strasbourg this Friday in Ligue 1 Matchday 8 and won 3-3. On the sidelines of the match, 29-year-old full-back Lucas Hernandez reflected on the result on PSG TV.
Hernandez: “The team’s spirit is impeccable”
“Unfortunately, we couldn’t win this match, even though that’s what we wanted. It’s true that we conceded that goal early in the second half; I think we should never concede that.
It’s true that the team’s spirit is impeccable. I think that even when we were down 1-3, we went for the match. We tried everything to win, but unfortunately, we only managed a draw. We made a great effort, now we need to rest well for Tuesday’s match.”
After trailing 3-1, the most important thing for PSG was to come back and at least get a point from the draw. That’s what they did. Returns from international breaks are always difficult for the capital club, which boasts a large number of international players.
The capital club did the essentials, but they still need to remain cautious. The competition will likely benefit from this draw, and they will need to avoid dropping points in the future to maintain their lead in the league. The Parisians have a great season ahead, and seeing their injury roster empty should help.
