Paris Saint-Germain drew 3-3 against Strasbourg this Friday at the Parc des Princes in Matchday 8 of Ligue 1 2025-2026. After the match, Parisian coach Luis Enrique spoke to Ligue 1+.
Luis Enrique: “We prioritize rotation.”
What a match, what intensity?
Of course, I think it was a close match, as we said in previous days. It’s always tough to prepare for this kind of match against a Strasbourg team, one of the best in Ligue 1. We struggled.
You still came back?
Yes, with this schedule this season, we prioritize rotation before and after the international schedule. We always think about winning the match, but there’s a goal at the end of the season, and you have to know how to manage it.
Luis Enrique: “You see your team’s problems and what the solutions are.”
What’s the difference between being up there and being down there?
The difference is simply that you see your team’s problems and what the solutions are. What you can improve. Because up there, we have a perfect view, and I’d happily stay up there the whole match, but it’s also important to be close to the players, and I like to have both options.
Luis Enrique: “We had our chances, and in the end, it’s 3-3, and we have to respect the result.”
You gave Ramos the opportunity to take the penalty. Is that important?
We have a lot of penalty takers, and it depends on the players on the pitch. We know he’s a specialist; there are a lot of players who can score them; we have confidence in all the players.
Did that give him a boost?
He had a few chances, we had our chances and in the end it was 3-3 and we have to respect the results.
