The first trophy of the year, as often since the arrival of QSI at the helm of PSG, is won by the Parisians. This Sunday in Doha, PSG won the thirteenth Champions Trophy in its history – the third in a row and the eleventh in twelve years (only Losc having broken the series in 2021).

Facing an ASM significantly more disciplined than three weeks earlier in the advanced match of the 16the day of Ligue 1 (2-4 victory for the Parisians at Louis-II), Luis Enrique’s men dominated the debates but for a long time came up against the baraka of Köhn in the Monaco cage.

Manchester City “in the heads”

We had to wait for added time to see Ousmane Dembélé, served on a plate by Fabian Ruiz, find the fault and thus give victory to his team (1-0, 90e+2), in a stadium 974 in Doha announced to be sold out and yet very sparse.

After ten days of vacation, it wasn’t easy to get back on track. There was intensity all the same, we had a good match, we had chances, even if it could go either way, says Dembéléhot, on the DAZN antenna. We start the year with a trophy, we are optimistic for the future. We will stay focused, we have an important match against City in the Champions League, he is on our minds and we will do everything to win at the Parc des Princes. »
