PSG v Monaco: Zakaria reveals the secret to winning in Paris | OneFootball

This Friday, as part of the 25th day of Ligue 1 2025-2026, Paris Saint-Germain faced AS Monaco at the Parc des Princes. Denis Zakaria, the 29-year-old Monaco midfielder, stopped by the Ligue1+ microphone after Monaco's 1-3 victory (video summary PSG/Monaco).

Zakaria "we got a bit of our revenge."

Beating PSG home and away, is it crazy?

It's quite crazy. But we knew we were capable of doing it. We missed it in the Champions League, but we got a bit of our revenge and we are very happy.

Thriving in defense?

Honestly, I'm getting older (laughs). I'm adapting, the team needed it and I'm doing the job. If it works, we'll keep going like this!

What was the turning point to believe in it?

It was important to finish a match with 11 players, we knew we would have to create danger. We played a great match and everyone is happy.

Zakaria "That's how you can beat PSG."

What's the secret?

No, we're not going to say that. Everyone is capable of beating everyone. Tonight, we were on a great night. That's how you can beat PSG.

3 points from 4th place? Did Pocognoli make his mark?

We had a very complicated start to the championship, we weren't at our level. We're coming back well. We are happy with the result of the performance. It's the kind of performance we need to build on.
