Paris Saint-Germain and Monaco clashed this Sunday at Stadium 974 during the 2024 Champions Trophy. A meeting which ended with a Parisian victory 1-0 (PSG/Monaco video summary). After this meeting, Adi Hütter, the coach of the Monegasque team spoke at a press conference. He did not hide that defeat in the final moments is difficult to live with, while emphasizing that Paris “ merit » its title.
Hütter « I want to congratulate PSG on their title, although we are obviously very disappointed by the defeat. »
“When you lose a match in the last minutes, the overwhelming feeling is always disappointment. This is what I feel, despite everything when we look at the entire match, Paris Saint-Germain deserves this victory. Although I'm happy with what we did tonight, because we fought until the end to hold on to the penalty shootout.
We had some opportunities, but we also conceded a lot to PSG, especially on set pieces where we were not well organized. I want to congratulate PSG on their title, although we are obviously very disappointed by the defeat.
You can imagine that every player was sad in the locker room after losing in the last moments, because it was a big hit to the back of the neck. We must now raise our heads and think about the next match against Nantes. »
A very classy reaction from the Monegasque coach who does not try to play on the disappointment for too long by admitting that PSG were superior. We must recognize that this Monaco team is gifted, that they have great things ahead of them that will happen to them.
PSG is just a little too strong this season, even after 10 days of vacation this winter (a fairly long break for a team of this level). Paris continues to be invincible in France and above all, defeats the big guys in this championship one after the other.
