Monaco/PSG: Safonov savours his team's fighting spirit | OneFootball

Matvey Safonov, 26-year-old goalkeeper for Paris Saint-Germain, stopped by the CBS Sports microphone after the 2-3 victory against AS Monaco (video summary Monaco/PSG) this Tuesday at Stade Louis II as part of the first leg playoffs of the 2025-2026 Champions League (return on February 25).

Safonov "I like that my team showed its character."

Satisfied despite the difficult start?

Monaco quickly showed us what the match was, the Champions League. No one will give gifts, we know that. I like that my team showed its character. We did half the work.

Safonov "If the team wants trophies, we need to go like this"

Were there doubts in the match?

If the team wants trophies, we need to go like this, with opposing elements. This should not change the objective, we must win and we have shown that it is possible.

Will the objective be to quickly secure the lead in the return?

Of course, but it will be difficult. It's the Champions League, anything is possible and we must be ready.
