At the break, 3-0, the rest of the match? Clear and flawless domination, with 75% possession and nearly 20 shots attempted (eight on target).
Luis Enrique’s players delivered a perfect score, to the great pleasure of the Spanish technician. “The results are very positive, it could not be otherwise by winning a Classic 3-0,” he recalled at a press conference after the match.
“From start to finish, we were the better team”

From start to finish, we were the better team,” he then declared, before adding a nice word for his supporters, who there will be hundreds to welcome their evening heroes to the Pavillon du Bourget. “We showed the supporters that we were happy, that we wanted to show all our personality and our football. They are 100% behind us and they deserve it”, which is something to rejoice PSG fans.
