Paris Saint-Germain hosted AS Monaco this Friday for the opening of the 25th day of Ligue 1 and was defeated 1-3 (video summary here). Ilya Zabarnyi, the 23-year-old defender of the capital club, spoke to PSG TV after the match.
"It was difficult, but it's simply because we didn't score enough goals and they did. That's football, it's unfortunate and of course, it's a shame to lose at home. We have to keep going, I feel very good within the team and everything is fine. The supporters? They are incredible. We know it and we always hear them. On our side too, we want to do our best. I just want to say thank you to them."
A defeat that hurts PSG but remains logical given the overall performance of the team. For several matches now, this Parisian team has managed to win narrowly, sometimes thanks to match events like the red card against AS Monaco in the Champions League.
Tonight PSG is punished and with three days before the first leg of the Champions League round of 16 against Chelsea, nothing is reassuring. It was obvious that the season was going to be difficult after the disrupted preparation, but a wake-up call was expected, especially as the crucial matches approached. However, it is clear that this Parisian team remains in trouble and that the rest of the championship and the European campaign promise to be challenging.
