An exceptional match, exceptional reception! A few hours after their large and important success (0-3) in Marseille on Sunday evening for the Ligue 1 classic, the PSG players were entitled to a great evening welcome. Several hundred of their supporters were in fact waiting for them upon their arrival, around 3 a.m., at Roissy airport (and not at Le Bourget airport as initially planned).
Despite the hour, the atmosphere was joyful, lively, festive, above all everyone wanted to play overtime. Even the players who did not hide their joy at sharing this moment with their fans. In the numerous videos published on the club’s social networks, we can see Ousmane Dembélé or Achraf Hakimi reaching out to the fans. “He who does not jump is Marseillais”, chant the supporters while the players jump in rhythm.
Coach Luis Enrique also takes part in this warm celebration. With his left fist clenched and raised to the sky, he firmly holds a smoke bomb with his right hand just in front of the supporters who are cheering him on. Same thing for captain Marquinhos.
“We dedicate this victory to the supporters,” declared the coach during the press conference after the match. It’s an important match for our fans and for our ranking. The results are very positive. Winning a clasico by doing it with this authority is very important. »
Thanks to this success in Marseille, PSG is reconciled with its supporters and recovers from its disappointing draw against PSV Eindhoven (1-1), last Tuesday, in the Champions League. Above all, he took advantage of the defeat of his runner-up Monaco in Nice (2-1) to distance himself from his pursuers in the Ligue 1 standings. The Monegasques are 3 lengths behind and the Marseillais, who could join the Parisians in the event of a victory , are relegated to 6 points.
