Trailing by two goals, PSG snatched a draw against Le Havre (3-3) thanks to Gonçalo Ramos this Saturday at the Parc des Princes, as part of the 31st day of Ligue 1. Paris is not yet officially champion …even if Luis Enrique considers the title acquired.
PSG are French champions for the 12th time… or almost. Held in check at home by Le Havre this Saturday (3-3), as part of the 31st day of Ligue 1, the Parisian club must count on a misstep from Monaco to Lyon on Sunday to officially win its new title. Even if for Luis Enrique, the thing is understood: “Today we won the championship, without a doubt, and this draw gives us the title, I celebrate it like that.”
“I’ve never seen that in my career.”
At a press conference, the Spanish technician confided having experienced a rather special evening. The Parisians were led 3-1 in the pouring rain, before finally securing a draw thanks to the decisive entry of Gonçalo Ramos. “It’s a slightly strange footballing night because it’s an opponent who, with few attacks, scored us three goals. I’ve never seen that in my career,” notes Luis Enrique. “But they defended very well and I congratulate them. They took a point. But I think they only made 145 passes in the whole match. We deserved to win but that’s football.”
With one thing that made the difference according to the Parisian coach: the public at the Parc des Princes: “Our supporters are incredible. They never stop singing and thanks to them, we never stop fighting. We managed to draw and win the championship thanks to our fans It’s a great night, champions, we already have two titles and we will prepare.”
Heads are now turned towards Wednesday and the Champions League semi-final first leg against Borussia Dortmund in Germany. The return match will take place six days later in Paris.
