Rennes v PSG – Dembélé insists: "The team must come first"

At the opening of the 22nd day of Ligue 1, Paris Saint-Germain traveled to face Stade Rennais (3-1 video summary here). The only scorer for the Parisian side, 28-year-old forward Ousmane Dembélé, reflected on this setback with PSG TV.

Dembélé "Rennes deserves their victory"

"First, we need to put the team ahead, we also missed a lot of chances. We could have come back to the score, I also think that Rennes deserves their victory. Yes, a trip to Monaco, for the playoffs. We know it won't be easy. We lost there, so we will do everything to win."

A defeat that hurts PSG, who were euphoric and confident after last Sunday's 5-0 victory against Olympique de Marseille. Now they need to focus on preparing as best as possible for this first match against AS Monaco this Tuesday. The Champions League remains PSG's main objective, as the defending champions, and this necessarily involves a playoff victory. This Parisian team has shown many weaknesses, but also many strengths this season. Therefore, they will need to be at 100% to tip the balance positively and continue their European journey.
