It was an announced party. Saturday afternoon, under a sublime sun, PSG received Angers with the firm intention of officially celebrating its title of champion of France. For this, a draw was enough. But for Luis Enrique, if it was obviously necessary to be very serious, it was also necessary to prepare for the reception of Aston Villa in the quarter -final of the Champions League on Wednesday. For the occasion, the Spanish coach notably left Barcola and Dembélé at rest. But do not panic, the offensive show was provided by the man in the form of 2025: Désiré Doué.
The French neo-international, holder alongside Gonçalo Ramos and Khvicha Kvaratskhelia, was to ensure offensive animation. And as usual, he showed very beautiful things technically. Disputing in the dribble, fast, he played with accuracy and was for a long time the only player capable of lighting the flame in a fairly dull game start. In a park of princes much less hot than in front of OM, Désiré Goué was able to wake the supporters by rides who still recalled a certain Neymar.
Désiré Doué always shines
It was on the return from the locker room that he was rewarded. If his teammate Kvaratskhelia was clumsy, he was not when delivering a millimeter center for Goué who catapulted the ball into the back of the net. A sublime goal which then launched him a little more in his match. On a few other situations, he was impactful, but always with this little lack in the last gesture. Not enough to frustrate the Parisian supporters who also reserved a very good ovation at the time of its release.
“I was marked by the maturity of the team despite their youth. I am very lucky to have players such flexible, intelligent and generous to attack and defend ”explained Luis Enrique at a press conference. If he quoted Kvara as an example, the involvement of Goué in this sector of play was to be welcomed this Saturday. This Wednesday against Aston Villa, Doué could well play a role, like what he had shown in front of Liverpool.
