On the sidelines of a press conference on Friday to discuss tomorrow’s Ligue 1 2024-2025 Matchday 5 at Stade Auguste Delaune against Reims (kick-off 9pm, broadcast on DAZN), Paris Saint-Germain coach Luis Enrique was interviewed by PSG TV. The interview was an opportunity to talk about the team’s good start to the season, the Reims team and the state of mind in his squad.
Luis Enrique: “It’s a good start, even if we always want to do better.
What’s the secret to victory?
There’s no secret, you just have to work and work and work. There are also players of the level we have. I’m lucky enough to be able to work here. It’s a good start, even if we always want to do better.
Will it be tough again tomorrow against Reims?
Without a doubt. Every game here is complicated by the level of the opposition, the atmosphere and the coach. They’re going to make things difficult for us, as we’ve seen their dynamics and performances. We have to put the Champions League to one side.
Luis Enrique: “We need to continue with this determination.
Does a victory like Wednesday’s show a great state of mind?
If we analyze the match, in the first half our opponents were very good at preventing us from creating chances. After that, we were far superior and could have won by a certain margin. But soccer isn’t always fair.
Fortunately, we had the faith and determination to fight to the end on every ball to get the win. We need to continue with this determination.
