Tomorrow evening, PSG will play its first official match of the 2025-26 season. The European champions will be opposed to Tottenham, winner of the Europa League. Before this shock, Ousmane Dembélé confided in the UEFA site. He returned to the C1 final. “There were helicopters above the hotel waiting for us. I remember these moments, we were all in the mood. Before this match, we were really confident, we had a game plan and we felt that it was our year. Before kick -off, we were all extremely concentrated, but also happy to participate in this final, in front of our supporters who had made the trip. It was simply incredible (…) We took Inter by the skin of the neck from the start. We didn't want anything to give in to them and we marked very quickly thanks to a beautiful action, a magnificent pass from Vitinha for Désiré. We all thought that Désiré was going to shoot, but he saw that Achraf was better placed than him, so he made a pass and, suddenly, we led 1-0. And afterwards, we no longer let go. “ He then spoke of his feeling by lifting the cut in the big ears: “It's heavy, but it's beautiful. It is the most beautiful trophy I have ever seen. It was a dream: winning the Champions League with Paris Saint-Germain, the very first is even more incredible. It goes so fast, but at the moment, it's incredible to live these moments with your teammates. And then, this is the end of the season; We gave everything, and winning the biggest trophy is incredible. ”
He also talked about his metamorphosis. “I think it's our season above all. Each player has progressed, whether in the Champions League or in Ligue 1; We have played much better. Personally, I gained a lot of confidence after scoring one or two goals. When you chain the goals every two or three days, you have much more confidence. My teammates have helped me a lot and I also managed to stand in front of the goal to score. ” Luis Enrique too. He is a coach who loves the game and what he does. I changed a little job (under his direction), but it is a position that I occupied a lot at the start of my career and when I was young. I quickly adapt to different positions without problem. I have more freedom to play inside, which I really appreciate, but I just try to help the team as best I can. As he told us since his arrival at the club, whether, two or 3-0, we must continue to play in the same way, attack together, defend together, and during this final, as we saw. We did it from start to finish. It was incredible. Finally, he concluded by evoking his ambitions with PSG for the new year. “Like last season. We know that we will be one of the teams to beat, but we have the same objectives as last season: everything win. ” The message has passed.
