Brest/PSG – Luis Enrique blunt, ‘this is the day I’m most annoyed’ | OneFootball

Paris Saint-Germain won 0-1 against Brest (Brest/PSG video highlights) this Sunday at Stade Francis Le-Blé as part of Matchday 4 of the 2026-2027 Ligue 1 season. After the match, PSG coach Luis Enrique spoke at a press conference.

Luis Enrique: “Mr. Roy would be happy to see the love everyone has for him.”

There was a lot of emotion before the match with the tribute to Brest coach Eric Roy, who passed away last June. Is it special to play in that context?

It’s very different. The build-up to the match was very beautiful; it’s rare for everyone to agree on something. Mr. Roy would be happy to see the love everyone has for him. It was beautiful, special, different as a way to start a match. Both teams showed their ability to play in those circumstances.

Luis Enrique: “When you make very clear mistakes, it’s incredible that it ends 0-1.”

Are you satisfied with the overall content of this match?

No, I was more satisfied with the first three matches that we didn’t win, with two draws and one defeat. We made a lot of mistakes. It’s always difficult to play in Brest. They are a very difficult team that can create chances quickly. We defended very well for almost the entire match, but we made a lot of mistakes. When you make very clear mistakes, it’s incredible that it ends 0-1. Since the start of the season, this is the day I’ve been the most annoyed.

Is Achraf Hakimi’s injury serious?

It’s in the adductor area. It’s an injury, but I don’t know how serious it is. We’ll see after the medical tests he’s going to have.

Luis Enrique: “At the end of the championship, everything evens out.”

Usually, matches between PSG and Brest are spectacular. How do you explain such a low score?

We made clear mistakes that could have led to goals conceded, but we didn’t concede any. In the last three matches, we did a lot of high-level defensive work, but the opponents scored. This was our worst match and we won. But you always get what you deserve. At the end of the championship, everything evens out. We won three necessary points on a day when there were a lot of draws.

When you are PSG, is it normal to have to wait until Matchday 4 to get your first win?

That’s life, what do you want to do? That’s football. You have to adapt. You have to fight as hard as possible; that’s top-level football. We accepted the first three matches, and now this was our worst day and we won. You have to accept the first three matches, but you also have to accept the fourth.

Luis Enrique: “Normally, if you make those mistakes in a match, you don’t win.”

How do you assess the performance of your goalkeeper Matvei Safonov?

There’s no debate for me. I have three top-level goalkeepers. I’m very happy with what he is doing, but I expect more from all the players. We are PSG; you have to know that you need to improve. Normally, if you make those mistakes in a match, you don’t win.
