PSG v Monaco: Luis Enrique warns of lack of confidence

Paris Saint-Germain hosted AS Monaco this Friday to kick off the 25th day of Ligue 1 and lost 1-3 (video summary here). After the match, Luis Enrique, the coach of the capital club, spoke to PSG TV about this result.

Luis Enrique: "Important to regain our confidence."

"It was difficult from the first minutes. We started this match a little like the last one against Monaco in the Champions League, with some inaccuracies and a lack of confidence. Monaco is a very good team and they played very well. In the first half, they created fewer chances than in the last match against us, but they scored. We also made mistakes on this first goal. It's a particular, difficult moment, as there are in every season. It's hard to change, but we need to correct this and try to regain the feeling to improve our performances because we will continue with the Champions League and it will be important to regain our confidence."

A difficult defeat for PSG, but ultimately deserved given the overall performance of both teams. Luis Enrique's men showed nothing spectacular this Friday, and the defeat quickly became apparent without any shift throughout the match. Naturally, this performance is far from reassuring just days before facing Chelsea in the first leg of the Champions League round of 16.

The matches go by, and this Parisian team has not regained the brilliance that allowed it to make its mark last season. In the league as well as on the European stage, the coming weeks promise to be challenging. First, they will need to secure the French championship title, which is far from guaranteed at the moment. The comeback is difficult for this PSG, which had its best season in history last year but is now struggling to regain the consistency and dominance that characterized it.
