It is Mauricio Pochettino who is far from depressed by the sad scene presented by his team during PSG/Nice (0-0) who presented himself at a post-match press conference. He felt that his forces should have been victorious and was still confident about the future.
What do you think of your team’s performance throughout the match? Looks like you’ve been through two completely different periods, and the second half was more successful, right?
“Overall, I think the team was better than our opponent. We created chances but didn’t score. It’s a pity we didn’t finish the game with a win but deserved the three points. It’s football… I think you can get that kind of thing in a season.” “
What is the difference between how you would like PSG to develop and its actual production according to you?
“We’re playing as we should, with the means we have today. I’m satisfied with that. The development follows its course in small steps every day. We are first in Ligue 1 and have qualified for the knockout stages. Now, we must continue to work to face the decisive moments and respond to the present at that moment.” “
PSG had a lot of chances tonight, especially in the second half, but what do you think he missed to score?
Sometimes you shoot and go in, and some don’t. Tonight wasn’t our night. It happens in football and in a season, usually once or twice, to create chances but not succeed in scoring because of the goalkeeper or by shooting aside. You have to. To accept that this kind of thing happens in one season.”
What do you think of the Lionel Messi match, celebrated for the Ballon d’Or before the match, but still not consistent with time, right?
“From a football point of view, in my opinion, he is still a player who has won seven Golden Balls. I repeat, it is a pleasure and an honor to be on our team.”
Presnel Kimpembe was taken out before the match ended. Is it due to physical anxiety, by simple precaution or rather related to a tactical decision? Also, what do you think of your defense, which was fairly strong tonight, despite some hot moments?
“Just before making the changes, Presnel told me he felt something, discomfort in the upper part of his leg. So we preferred to release him. And yes, I am happy with the defense tonight.”
