PSG had to work hard on Sunday to beat Brest. The Parisians indeed had to wait until the 83e minute of the match to score the only goal of the match thanks to a strike from the edge of the area from Désiré Doué. A goal which was enough for the happiness of the Rouge et Bleu, who thus maintain a six-point lead over Lens with two days remaining and benefit from a better goal difference.
“I think we are champions already, Luis Enrique said after the meeting. It will be enough I think and it allows us to prepare individually for the last two matches that we have left to then prepare for the final of the Champions League (against Arsenal on May 30 in Budapest). »
The Parisian coach nonetheless took care to pay tribute to Lens, whom the Rouge et Bleu will meet again on Wednesday for a shock at the top which has necessarily lost its flavor. “We have to highlight what Lens did throughout the season, they were at an incredible level, it was very difficult for us. It’s been quieter over the last two seasons, he stressed, adding: “Now, every time you wear the PSG jersey, you have to be ready so we will prepare for this match against Lens in the same way but we have to manage the players’ playing time from now on. The goal is May 30.”
“The head is still in Munich”
The Champions League final against Arsenal is on everyone’s minds and the former midfielder easily admitted that it had been complicated to prepare for this meeting against Brest.
“We’re still hungover from Munich. The lead is still in Munich, so it was difficult to prepare for this match, he said. We didn’t celebrate in the locker room because we are still missing one match, the most important of the season. »
Before facing Arsenal on May 30 in Budapest, PSG will deal with current affairs in Ligue 1, firstly with a trip to Lens on Wednesday, then a trip to neighbors Paris FC on the occasion of the 34e and last day of the championship.
