"He's really the star": after PSG-Brest, Brendan Chardonnet praises Kylian Mbappé

In a post-match press conference, the Brest defender made glowing remarks about Kylian Mbappé, who was able to slip him the


The Brestois, beaten this Saturday by PSG (2-0), knew that the task would not be easy.

They also knew that the slightest gift made in Paris would be paid for in cash.

This was confirmed despite good situations at the start of the game.

Irvin Cardona could have put Brest in orbit without a good save from Gianluigi Donnarumma (10th).

The turning point of the game, according to captain Brendan Chardonnet.

“We had the opportunity to lead in the score, we knew that we could not have five or six, and it is frustrating not to have scored this first goal, regretted the defender in a press conference. If we lead 1-0 after 10 minutes, the match is no longer the same. It's really a clear chance, we can't be better placed to score a goal..."

Subsequently, the Parisians increased in power and Mbappé did the rest to open the scoring on an action where Chardonnet, precisely, gave him time to fix, close his foot and deceive Marco Bizot with the help of the post (1 -0, 32nd).

"It's the class of a boy like Mbappé, analyzes the defender.

I don't want to get too close, he slips the ball between my legs and Marco can't do anything.

They are ultra-efficient, even more Mbappé.

Everything has been successful for him since the start of the season. He is really the backbone of this team, even more so without Messi and Neymar, you can feel it on the pitch.

He is the star, the one who can unblock situations.

We try to channel it, but it's not easy.

“They were stronger than us, there was no match”

At the Canal + microphone, striker Jérémy Le Douaron expressed “a little regret over the first half.

(…) Faced with this kind of team, it pays cash.

But we were solid defensively, they made us run but we didn't give up and I'm proud of the team all the same.

We played to our strengths with players who go quickly in front but we weren't efficient enough.

»

Same observation for coach Michel Der Zakarian who nevertheless recognized the superiority of the opponent during his intervention: “We played a team much stronger than us, who confiscated the ball from us in the second half.

They could have scored more goals.

We blocked balls on the line, the goalkeeper made saves, we only lost 2-0.

They were stronger than us, there was no match.
