After Paris Saint-Germain’s 4-2 victory over RC Strasbourg on Saturday in Ligue 1, PSG coach Luis Enrique praised the performance of young midfielder Senny Mayulu (18 years old, 5 appearances, 1 goal in Ligue 1 this season), as well as the team’s overall display.
The star of the evening was Senny Mayulu. The young Parisian player could have scored more than just one goal. It was an impressive performance, and Luis Enrique confirmed that he convinced the player to stay at PSG.
« I’m very happy because we knew this match would be very tough. We knew how they play, how they press, but if you get past their pressing, you create numerical advantages and chances. We did that in the first half but much better in the second. We should have done it from the first minute. But I’m pleased because it’s hard to play right after international breaks. »
On Mayulu, Enrique added: « He could have scored three goals! Last year, he could have left—I’m not going to say where—but I spoke to him, and he stayed. I told him I liked the way he plays. He has potential, quality, and personality. I’m very happy for him, » the Spanish coach told DAZN.
