The faces of the PSG players were closed this Sunday evening when leaving the Bollaert stadium.
For the first time this season, Christophe Galtier's men tasted defeat this Sunday evening (3-1).
A setback that caused no debate in the Parisian ranks who recognized the superiority of Racing Club de Lens carried by its formidable public and a burst of energy from which certain elements of Christophe Galtier's training should be inspired.
“Lens was clearly better than us.
They deserve to win, recognized Vitinha at the microphone of Prime Video.
We must not forget this match but remember it and see what we did wrong.
It could happen.
We wanted to stay undefeated but we weren't able to do it.
We have to watch this game again.
Our difficult start in a somewhat hostile atmosphere, the organization under pressure… We have to review everything.
Lens completely deserve this match.
They played better and understood this game better than us.
We didn't manage to create a lot.

More than the defeat, it was the way it was conceded that annoyed Christophe Galtier.
The Parisian coach regretted the attitude displayed by his men for 90 minutes, with a failed start to the match and an equally bad start to the second period.
Add to that the fact that Kylian Mbappé's partners seemed tactically lost, and you have a frustrated Christophe Galtier as he had never been since his arrival this summer.
Marquinhos: “We have to find team cohesion”
“Over the whole match obviously Lens deserves its victory but it's not so much the defeat that disappoints me or annoys me, it's the way we conceded our goals, explained the Parisian technician.
The positions were not respected.
It is always very important to start a second half well.
We gave them two goals.
Behind that we completely cut ourselves in two, disorganized.
It's the first time I've seen my team be so disorganized.

While the pact made by the players to finish the season undefeated has been shattered in the North, captain Marquinhos is now calling on his teammates to come together as quickly as possible at the start of 2023. “We cannot say that it was because of the absence of Neymar and Messi that we lost.
We have to find team cohesion and efficiency because the important things will happen, ”claims the Brazilian.
The recovery is expected this Friday on the lawn of Châteauroux.
