Yesterday evening, Paris Saint-Germain kicked off its season with a friendly defeat against Mallorca. Deprived of several internationals, the Parisians were beaten 3 to 0. Questioned after the meeting by PSG TVLuis Enrique reacted to this setback which occurred a week before the European Super Cup against Aston Villa. “It’s difficult to make a fair analysis. I think we had an interesting first half, but we made a mistake on the second goal conceded and it was difficult. But I’m happy with what I saw, I saw Titis play very well. It’s a match to improve our physical condition. It’s not the result we would have liked, but that’s how football is.”
He continued: “When you play against Paris Saint-Germain, it’s motivation for all the teams, that’s normal. It’s our first week of preparation, we had a lot of Titis in the team. They are very young players, and I must emphasize their level and their mentality. In three days, we will play a new preparation match. It’s normal, we’re waiting for our internationals to return to really see our team.” On Saturday, the French and European champions will face Manchester United in a friendly. A reaction is expected.
