PSG won in Reims this Saturday with a hat-trick from Kylian Mbappé (0-3). Without convincing Luis Enrique, however.

Luis Enrique, as we know, is never as demanding as when his team clearly wins. This Saturday in Reims, it is true that PSG’s 0-3 victory has the appearance of a trompe-l’oeil – the Champagne club having largely compared with its opponent in terms of clear chances in particular. With no less than six exceptional saves made by Gianluigi Donnarumma.

Author of a hat-trick to give the three points – and the leadership – to his team, Kylian Mbappé did not succeed in everything in this meeting of the 12e day of Ligue 1. The Blues striker was also lucid about his performance, live, on Prime Video: “ In all humility, I don’t need to play well to score but what I want is to play well and score… » An opinion that Luis Enrique clearly shares.

“Not very happy with Kylian today”

In front of the cameras of the aforementioned broadcaster, the Spanish coach of PSG did not spare his star scorer at the end of the game. “ I’m not very happy with Kylian todaysays the former coach of La Roja. On the goals, obviously, I have no complaints. But I think he can help the team more, in another register. I’m going to talk to him face to face first, I’m not going to do it in the media. It’s not public. We think he’s one of the best players in the world, no doubt about it. But we would like him to do even more. » At the break, Luis Enrique did not hesitate to call Gonçalo Ramos onto the bench to breathe new life into his team. A change that could have been different. “ Gonçalo didn’t deserve to come out, I could have also released Kylian », breathes the Parisian technician.
