After winning the first title of the season, the euphoria in Paris is limited. The next task is already waiting on Wednesday.
Paris Saint-Germain’s players made a round of honor in the Princes Parc, the fans celebrated coach Luis Enrique with speech choirs-but the very great euphoria did not burst after the early win of the French football championship. “It’s a nice feeling. It is the reward for the work we have done all season for our durability, and the team deserves it,” said Captain Marquinhos – and added: “Our goal is to win everything.”
It was “a very important and beautiful day for all PSG fans,” said coach Luis Enrique after 1-0 (0-0) against Angers Sco, which Paris had prematurely secured the eleventh championship in the past 13 years: “We won the title in Ligue 1 in April, which means that we had already achieved a very high level at the beginning of April.”
But because your own dominance in the local league is now routine for the star ensemble from the capital, the hunger for further titles and successes is far from satisfied. And that is why the Spaniard does not simply want to give the six outstanding game days in the French Oberhaus.
After all, PSG can be the first team in France to win the title without defeat. “Nobody has succeeded, so it would be a good record for our club and would help us for the Champions League and the Cup final,” said Enrique.
Because in Paris they dream of triple. In the cup in the final on May 24th against Stade Reims, in the premier class, Aston Villa is waiting in the quarter-final first leg on Wednesday (9:00 p.m./DAZN). “We have already said in the changing room that we have to concentrate on the goals that we still have this season,” said Marquinhos. And teammate Lucas Hernandez added: “Today we are all happy. But we have another big game ahead of us on Wednesday.”
