PSG v Auxerre: Hernandez discusses injuries and warns Barcelona! | OneFootball

Paris Saint-Germain won 2-0 against Auxerre (video summary PSG/Auxerre) this Saturday at the Parc des Princes as part of the 6th day of Ligue 1 2025-2026. After this match, Parisian defender Lucas Hernandez (29 years old) spoke in the mixed zone.

Hernandez "it's the path to follow."

A serious match against Auxerre, what will be the decisive details against Barça?

I think it's going to be a match... It's never easy over there, but the strength of the collective, I think that's going to make the difference. It's true that we're in a period where there are a few injuries, but the important thing in a team is the whole team.

Everyone is involved. Everyone is in it. And every time someone takes another's place, they rise to the occasion. I think that's the path to follow.

When you see the series of injuries, does it get into your head?

It's never easy when there are a lot of injuries. But then, as I said before, the strength of this team is the collective. Every player who comes on is ready. Hopefully, on Wednesday we can bring the victory home.

Hernandez "show that everyone is ready."

How to turn all these injuries into a positive?

As we are doing right now, we show it on the field. Every player who comes off responds on the field. We have a few players from the academy who have joined us, they've come in. They've shown personality and for all the youth of the club, it's the path to follow, to show that everyone is ready.

And I hope that, as since they joined last week, they will continue to help us, because we need everyone and especially the young ones. They prove the quality they have and that they can be with us, of course.

Hernandez "we have everything we need to win."

An opportunity for you to establish yourself as a starter?

Starter or not, I don't know. In any case, every time the coach gives me the opportunity, I respond. And I know what path to follow, hoping to have more and more chances.

Barcelona, is it an important milestone for this Champions League adventure?

Yes, it's the 2nd match of the Champions League group stage. We will go there with everything we have to try to bring the victory home, of course. Barcelona will also do everything to win at home, with their supporters, but we have everything we need to win.
