The Parisian captain returned to the Parisian defeat on the ground of Nice this Saturday (1-0).
Marquinhos (defender and captain of PSG, after the defeat in Nice ) : «As always against them… It’s a team that works well, that works well, that closes the spaces well. They pressed us well. We had difficulties to press, to counter in the first period. In the second half, it was better, we were more aggressive. We no longer had the ball. And then it comes down to details at the end of the match… We tried to score, we were too open, we took a counter. This kind of situation needs to be handled better. We need to communicate better. It’s the kind of detail that is expensive… We created very few chances. We couldn’t find the spaces and be aggressive. We turned the ball from side to side, but sometimes you have to take risks. We missed it. We had two or three dangerous chances. They had few too. But they were effective in this end of the match… (…)
When it wins everything is fine, it’s easy to manage, when we lose we have our feet on the ground and we look at what needs to be improved. In a season, there are ups and downs, wins and losses. Don’t worry, we’re still first. But it mustn’t become a habit of losing… At home, we know our strength. Away, you have to start bringing points home. We must immediately prepare mentally for this match, recover physically because it was a tough match, and, little by little, we will get there.” (on Canal+ Shifted)
