Paris Saint-Germain faced Flamengo this Wednesday (1-1, 3-1 on penalties) in the final of the Intercontinental Cup. Following the match, Vitinha, the 25-year-old midfielder, spoke to PSG TV after this victory.

Vitinha: "We feel like we did a good job"

“It’s an incredible feeling. It was a super important final and we won it. It was tough, we really sweated, and now we’re very happy. We feel like we did a good job, with a lot of hard work and a bit of luck too, but we need that. And a great Safonov as well, incredible! The supporters? They’re always there, even here in Qatar they’re here, they helped us. We were lucky enough to choose their side for the penalty shootout, that’s important. And fortunately, everything came together perfectly for us to win.”

A historic achievement for PSG, who become the first to win this Intercontinental Cup. A record-breaking year that firmly places the capital club at the top of French, European, and world football.
