PSG v Strasbourg – Rosenior: proud but naturally disappointed

Paris Saint-Germain and Strasbourg faced off this Friday at the Parc des Princes as part of Matchday 8 of the 2025-2026 Ligue 1 season. A match that ended in a 3-3 draw (PSG/Strasbourg video highlights). After this match, Strasbourg’s coach Liam Rosenior spoke in a press conference.

Rosenior: “to go toe-to-toe with the best team in Europe, the best coach…”

“I’m both proud and of course also disappointed. (…) When you’re leading 3-1 away from home, you want to win. We spent a lot of energy pressing for 75 minutes. To come here and go toe-to-toe with the best team in Europe, the best coach… I’m really very proud of this team. We’re the second-youngest starting eleven in the history of the league. We’re well placed in Ligue 1. My group keeps learning, but we’re competitive in every match.” These comments were relayed by L’Equipe.

We understand the English coach’s feelings. His team put in an interesting performance and confirmed its great potential. Making PSG doubt like that isn’t something everyone can do. Even if the Parisians were still far from 100%, they still had plenty of strengths and Strasbourg deserve credit.

Except they also cracked at the end of the match, partly due to fatigue, and ultimately conceded the draw after leading by 2 goals. There’s reason to be frustrated. Without exaggeration, because this wasn’t just any opponent and Rosenior rightly points that out. His team logically still has to grow. It was a fine step, with qualities already on show but also lessons to take away.
