In the 10th round of the French Ligue 1 championship, Paris Saint-Germain hosted ESTAC Troyes at the Parc des Princes, securing a 1-0 victory. Speaking to PSG TV, Luis Enrique, the capital club’s manager, shared his thoughts on his players’ performance.
Luis Enrique: “I am very happy, especially when we win this type of match.”
“11 consecutive victories—these are positive things. But what stands out to me most is that we managed to win every single match between the two international breaks. It’s the first time we’ve achieved that. As is often the case against teams in a difficult position in the standings, it was a tough match. I think we created more scoring opportunities than usual, trying to find more goals, but they defended very well.
I am very happy, especially when we win this type of match. Congratulations to the supporters; it was an important day. Winning this match felt special—as it always does when we play at the Parc des Princes. We are happy, and I hope we have many more years to share together; that is very important for the club.”
It was an important win for PSG, concluding their month of competition in the best possible way. Whether in the league or the Champions League, Luis Enrique’s men have strung together nothing but victories since the last international break—a remarkable achievement. This Saturday, against Troyes, the task had promised to be a difficult one.
Teams at the bottom of the table often pose significant challenges for PSG, thanks to their determination and defensive discipline. The Parisians, however, managed to avoid falling into that trap. Without being flashy, they managed to score the lone goal that allowed them to walk away with all three points this Saturday—and, most importantly, to remain at the top of the league table heading into this latest international break.
