In an interview with The teamLucas Hernandez returned to the first coronation of Paris Saint-Germain in the Champions League. After a globally chaotic league phase, the capital's club finally produced an exceptional final phase, like this finalized end-to-end final against Inter Milan (5-0). Asked about the European Red and Blue course, the defender of the Blues, who is about to find the selection, tried to justify this rise in power. “There were two turning point for me: Manchester City and Liverpool”notably said the 29 -year -old player.
Before detailing: “Once we beat Manchester City at home after being led 0-2 (4-2 in the end, January 22), we thought we had the capacity to achieve something bigger and that we should not let this chance pass. It's almost a click. In the days that followed, we thought that we could go and get this Champions League, that everything could happen. It was important to believe it, because it brought us a lot of confidence for the following matches. Victory was the icing on the cake. Then there was Liverpool, because we felt strong on the two matches against one of the best teams in Europe (0-1 in the first leg on March 5, 1-0, 4-1 at the TAB on March 11). Honestly, it's great to have been able to experience this with this group. I am no longer very young (29 years old), but this group is very young and I think we can say: this is the beginning of an era. In any case, we have the right to believe it ”.
