DBasia.news –  Lille 5-1 beat Paris Saint-Germain in the Ligue 1 follow-up match. PSG coach Thomas Tuchel felt his team had difficulty playing with 10 players.

Les Parisiens was forced to play with 10 men after Juan Bernat Velasco got a red card. After that, Lille immediately stepped on the gas.

Sebelimnya, Kylian Mbappe assess PSG play like a beginner team. The French national team player considered Les Parisiens too easy to concede. However, Tuchel did not agree with the player’s view.

“No, it’s too easy to say like Mbappe that we lack personality, we are in control,” said Tuchel.

“We started the match well, with four goals, two for us and two offsides. They had no chance in the first half, and there was a chance for Thilo Kehrer at the start of the second half.”

“With 10 players all becoming complicated, we performed with injured players who should not play. It is impossible to have only 16 players,” added the coach.

“To win here, we need quality. Given the circumstances, we have good players, I have to protect the players,” said Tuchel.

“PSG lacked players. Yes, we lost Lassana Diarra and Adrien Rabiot. Everyone saw that. Nobody said anything before because they won. Now, everyone must think.”
