He claimed that the players were ready to remind everyone that they were the defending champions and hoped to achieve something special this year, moving step by step toward a new final. #AchrafHakimi #Compétition #Football (translated)

Actu Foot reported that Achraf Hakimi hoped that a member of their group would win the Ballon d'Or and could celebrate it in Paris with the supporters and the team. The player described this award as special and said he would already be happy to be nominated, even if he didn't win it. He added that collective trophies were his priority and that people would then judge who deserved the individual accolades. #BallonDor #AchrafHakimi #PSG (translated)

Messiah Yaniss believed that Luis Enrique's PSG was among the greatest teams in history and had all the assets to dominate modern football. He praised their ability to build the game, press, quickly regain possession, and counter-attack. He specifically mentioned Dembélé as a false nine, Ruiz in midfield, Nuno Mendes and Hakimi on the wings, as well as Pacho, whom he described as valuable in a context where great defenders were rare. According to him, the team's collective intelligence allowed its players to occupy different positions and move across the pitch. He added that replacing Kvaratskhelia with Akliouche or Neves with Warren Zaïre-Emery would not change the team's play style. He also described Doué as a player suited for modern football, capable of adapting to various roles, and then praised PSG and Luis Enrique while mentioning the possibility of a third consecutive title. #PSG #Football #LuisEnrique (translated)

Mr. Seitán described the match as very attractive, although unfair for City, which in his opinion deserved to score or not to be losing by such a margin. He noted that the 1-3 came from an own goal after a great play by Semenyo, after Hakimi was close to making it 0-4. He also maintained that QSG had been superior against a good City. #Fútbol #ChampionsLeague #QSG (translated)
