Coach Luis Enrique praises PSG's fighting spirit

In the French Super Cup final, Paris Saint-Germain defeated Monaco 1-0 to win its 13th French Super Cup title. Coach Luis Enrique praised the team's fighting spirit.

Although PSG created 27 chances in the game, including 9 shots on target, they still failed to break the deadlock in regular time. It was not until the final injury time that Ousmane Dembele scored the winning goal to help PSG win the championship.

In the post-match interview, Enrique said: "Today's game was very difficult. The opponent has very high-level players, and many of them have offensive capabilities."

"We tried to dominate the game and we had our moments defensively but I think the goal in the end was a fair reward for a team that never stopped fighting, kept attacking, kept running, kept defending. I think it's very positive and we have to keep cherishing that spirit."

"It's always exciting to win a title. It's a great way to start 2025, with an almost full stadium with many PSG fans. It gives us confidence and is very important for morale. We have to enjoy this moment before thinking about the future."

"With the playing philosophy and the characteristics of the players we have, we have to grow as a team and keep improving in every situation."

Paris Saint-Germain's next game will be on January 13, when they will face Saint-Etienne at home in the 17th round of the French Ligue 1. Currently, Paris Saint-Germain is unbeaten in the French Ligue 1 with 40 points, firmly sitting at the top of the list, 7 points ahead of Marseille, which is in second place.
