After his team’s great victory in Monaco (4-2) despite very unfavorable circumstances, Luis Enrique did not at all want to press on the questionable match of referee François Letexier, quite the contrary.
There are now ten points difference between PSG and Monaco, it’s perfect, right?
“Yes, we have achieved the goal. It was a very difficult match from the start but I think we were up to it at all times. They regained the lead with two quick goals but I’m very happy with what I saw. »
Tell us what happened from your coaching perspective on Donnarumma, the penalty, etc. It was difficult but you remained very calm.
“There’s nothing I can do, it was done. I was faced with a situation and I couldn’t see the action, it’s a shame. When you see an action like that, it’s always difficult but the players don’t intend to cause injury. It’s a complete sport and it’s difficult to referee these kinds of matches. We can have divided opinions, but I’m not talking about referees because it’s very hard. »
João Neves started on the left then moved to central midfield, why?
“Today, João started on the left because we want to preserve Lucas (Hernandez) so that he gradually recovers the rhythm, so that he comes back without being in a hurry. We had some difficulties at the start and it’s good to have versatile players, to change their positions. He played well on the left but we changed for a player who played very well. We have resources and that way, as a coach, I can change the team’s plans very easily. »
