On the 22nd day of Ligue 1, Paris Saint-Germain had the opportunity to take advantage of the misstep of OGC Nice, beaten in Lyon the day before, to jump to the top of the standings. It’s done since the reigning French champion, with a reshuffled team, won against a valiant Nantes team (2-0). Asked about having left several captains on the bench, like Kylian Mbappé, the Asturian justified his tactical choices at the microphone of Canal+.
“For us, it was a difficult match considering the scenario. Coming to this stadium with an incredible atmosphere and after a Champions League match which was complicated, I needed to change the team. Some players were able to play several minutes. What’s good is to see that all the players are involved. We defended well and recovered many balls. It’s a great victory. We want to have the option to be able to fight with all the players, so it’s good that they’re all involved.”he expressed before continuing on the case of KM7, who came on in the 62nd minute and scored around fifteen minutes later: “With Mbappé? We get along very well, there are no problems.”
