Solid leader of Ligue 1 at kick-off, Paris Saint-Germain had the opportunity to consolidate its national supremacy this Sunday evening against Stade Brestois. To close the 19th day, the Parisians took control of this poster at the top of the table but were slow to find the opening. We finally had to wait until the end of the first act to see Marco Asensio (38th) then Randal Kolo Muani (45th) adjust the sights. Despite a comfortable lead at the break, the capital club cracked after returning from the locker room…
First on an own goal from Danilo Pereira following a strike from Mahdi Camara (55th) before Mathias Pereira Lage equalized with a subtle left heel, behind his supporting leg (80th). Enough to confirm the very good dynamic of SB29 (8 wins and 2 draws in the last 10 matches in all competitions), more than ever 3rd in Ligue 1. A scenario which, on the other hand, caused the immense frustration of Luis Enrique, interviewed on the microphone of Prime Video at the end of the meeting.
Luis Enrique shows his frustration!
“It’s easy to explain, we lost control of the match. Because it’s football, it’s not basketball, it can happen because we played against a very good team, they played very well, it’s happened before and it will happen again.”, first blurted out the Spanish technician. With a very closed face, the former coach of La Roja also displayed his anger towards the performance of his players upon returning from the locker room. “I didn’t enjoy the second half at all, would you like me to be happy? We lost control of the match, you ask me and I answer you. When you lose control of the match, you lose possession, you lose possession, you lose chances. They could have even won the match..
Reluctant to detail his analysis, Luis Enrique, annoyed after each question asked, finally quickly closed his exchange with the broadcaster. “I don’t have time to analyze this whole match yet, there are obviously positive things in each match but it’s just a shame to lead 2-0 and to be brought back even though we talked about it in the locker room and this type of scenario has already happened in the past”. A positive alert before the Champions League? “Even before the Coupe de France, we will find them in the Cup, they are a superb team, I like them very much”, added the person concerned tersely. Despite PSG’s 6-point lead over OGC Nice at the end of this 19th day of Ligue 1, it is frustration that predominates on the Parisian side…
