For the round of 16 of the Coupe de France, PSG faced Orléans. A seemingly easy meeting for the Parisians who did not fall into the Orléans trap by winning easily thanks to a great Kylian Mbappé (4-1). At the end of the meeting, the Ile-de-France captain, Marquinhos, expressed his satisfaction.
“We knew the context of this match, which is to come to a place we are not used toanalyzes the Brazilian defender. In history, we know that teams manage to hold 0-0 and bring the big teams to penalties or score on the counter, from a corner. It’s the cup, a goal for us. We have to be very efficient, that’s what we managed to do today. It hurts a lot when you don’t win, I know how the cup is valued in France. Small teams give us work, we have to respect the opponent. This time of the season is very important, with three matches per week.»
