“At Strasbourg, at Lens, at Lille… When you play away from home, these are not easy matches. The teams playing against us have extra motivation, and that is what is difficult to manage when you are a player for a team like PSG. But I’m happy. We expected to have difficulties, but we started the match positively. We needed that first goal to feel comfortable in the game. Instead, our opponents scored, which led to a loss of confidence and shaped the remainder of the first half. But I think we took control of the match again in the second half and, after bringing on some fresh legs and making use of the quality we have on the bench, we won the match, and we’re very happy. Mentality is clearly important when you play this kind of match. To win what we want to win, we need every player, and we need to be ready to compete in every match, whatever the circumstances. Today, it wasn’t easy for the players who get less playing time to perform well, but I think we showed our mentality. Clearly, there are still things we can improve, but that’s to be expected.”
