Enrique: Thanks to Barcelona for helping raise funds; Ashraf + Mendes is the wingback combination

Hupu October 2nd News Paris Saint-Germain coach Luis Enrique attended the post-Champions League press conference to reverse Barcelona 2-1.

I think it's a great game for everyone, both teams play very well and the players are excellent. Everyone enjoyed a high level game.

talked about replacing Neves before the game:

João was in good shape, and we decided not to take risks because he was an important player. All players are important, but I think it is crucial to maintain full confidence in such a fierce game. We finally decided not to let him play. The strength and mental outlook of this team determine that no matter who the player is, we will support him.

Are you surprised by the influence that such a young lineup has brought, and the fact that it has gained a foothold against Barcelona?

First of all, I want to thank Barcelona for selling jerseys for the Xana Foundation. We raised the donation. I thank the whole club. We played a very good game. The game started with a tough one because Barcelona possessed the ball. The first 20 minutes were difficult. We rebuild our confidence. We performed better in the second half, and this victory deserved. No matter the players, our style is consistent. This victory is of great significance, as it is always a joy to beat Barcelona.

You are very dominant and very talented in athleticism. Are you surprised?

Not surprised.

Is this a turning point?

This victory is crucial to our team's confidence. We suffered setbacks last season. The confidence of the players will increase. We want to enjoy this victory and connect with the fans.

Are you looking forward to the quarterfinals with confidence?

I don't know. It depends on everyone's schedule, but our schedule is very tough. We may win every game or we may lose every game. The quarterfinals are not important to me. What is important is to feel the team's mental outlook and the team's DNA.

Are you proud to successfully show your style?

No matter what the players are, our style is consistent. Our performance in the second half was very high. We must keep going.

Even if your collective calmness turns the situation around even when you are behind 0-1?

Away matches are complicated and not easy. We have to know how to control the game and adapt to changes. Last season we have proved that we can overcome difficulties. Against Tottenham Hotspur, we started the same way again. We were 0-2 behind. We were proud of the performance in the last ten minutes.

Nuno Mendes and Ashraf Hakimi are the best left-right guards in the world?

No doubt. In my opinion, they are the best. When you stand as aggressive as we are and have two players as fast as you can, you can calmly prepare for the game. We played at a great level.
