PSG-Real Sociedad: Angry Luis Enrique Shakes Up Players at Half-Time

Bradley Barcola mentioned PSG had two faces during the match against Real Sociedad. Luis Enrique had to shake up his players.

PSG was asleep in the first half. Real Sociedad effectively suffocated the Parisians for 45 minutes. And at half-time, things needed to be put back in order. Luis Enrique spoke in the dressing room.

« We started poorly, in the first half, we were pushed around. I think mentally we probably didn’t expect that. But the coach woke us up at half-time, we listened to his instructions, and that’s also why we were able to score those two goals. »

« We go into the return leg with an advantage. We are very happy with this victory and now we have to do the job in the return leg. »

« The coach was quite angry »

Gigio Donnarumma validates Luis Enrique’s speech. « It’s normal, he’s an extraordinary coach who asks for the maximum from us, it’s normal to get a little angry. He gives everything for the team and we have to give everything for him. We are a very united team, the team took his speech well because we saw that in the first half we had a lot of difficulties. In the second half, we managed to get the ball out better and we scored two fantastic goals, » praised the Italian in the mixed zone.

The sentiment is echoed by Marquinhos. « We had a lot of difficulties in the first half. It’s a team that has a lot of mobility, commitment. We knew it was going to be difficult. The coach pulled our ears, we talked to each other. In the second half, it was much better. We knew that if we managed to get out of the pressing, we would have spaces. The coach was quite angry. Luis is someone who always tells us the truth, » said the Brazilian captain.
