Small setback for Paris Saint-Germain in Ligue 1. This Saturday evening, the Rouge et Bleu were held to a draw by FC Nantes with a score of 1 goal.
A game like the 2024-2025 version of PSG in the Champions League this season: a lot of possession but little efficiency in the zone of truth. Against the Canaries, Luis Enrique’s men set a new record.
The Parisians achieved a record for ball possession in a Ligue 1 match. Never has a team finished a match with 84.1% possession since Opta analyzed the competition in 2006/2007.
Never before has a team attempted 1008 passes in a Ligue 1 match, according to information from the newspaperTeam.
Luis Enrique frustrated by lack of efficiency
Often optimistic after Paris Saint-Germain matches, Luis Enrique gradually begins to get annoyed with his players. The Spanish technician remains confident but no longer hesitates to point out the lack of efficiency of his men.
“Efficiency is the key to football. It’s very difficult to create as many chances as we did. It gets frustrating. There is only one way to move forward, and that is to persist, to continue to have confidence and to move forward,” he said at the microphone of PSG TV.
