PSG continues to panic the scorers in the Champions League. New illustration this Wednesday with the five goals scored against Tottenham. Enough to allow him to overcome Spurs (5-3) and consolidate his status as the best attack in the competition with now 19 goals in five matches.

However, none of the Parisian attackers scored on Wednesday. If PSG soared, it owes it to its midfielder and more particularly to Vitinha, author of three of the five Parisian goals. And the Portuguese midfielder may have scored his first career hat-trick, but his performance did not even surprise his coach.

I would say that he was as usual, sensational, out of level, he declared at a press conference. For me, the best thing he did today was when he missed on Tottenham’s third goal. Afterwards, he wanted the ball in every action and took the penalty. That’s the personality we love. He has this different personality. »

“Wow, what a player”

And in the opposite camp, Thomas Frank was just as complimentary. So much so that the London coach sees Vitinha as Ousmane Dembélé’s successor on the Ballon d’Or list. “Wow, what a player, he said after the match. We played against a good team, with a Ballon d’Or and maybe the next one… Vitinha, wow, what a player. »

The admiration of the Danish technician was shared by all the players. “He shows us how important he is. I saw him arrive and gain weight in this team. Today he is the one who controls our game, our master in the middle of the field, sets the tempo, from one side to the other. particularly highlighted Captain Marquinhos while Pacho added : “He is incredible, we can always count on him, his level is impressive. »
