"Senny, Quentin [Ndjantou], who came on and is a new young player, he was great. That's what we need, players who come to help us and play our football. We showed our work, even with a lot of injuries, we were at the top level. We know it's going to be harder this year because everyone wants to beat us. We know that, and we're focused. We always come to win, and today was a good example."
"They scored the first goal, but we didn't give up, we kept our heads. We knew we had to play our game to come back and win this match. We are like that; we have this identity as a team. We have this mentality of not giving up despite what might happen. The coach also contributes every day."
Paris Saint-Germain overturned a 1-0 deficit to beat Barcelona 2-1 in the Champions League with goals from Senny Mayulu and Goncalo Ramos. The PSG starting XI averaged 23 years and 98 days, the second-youngest ever named by a defending Champions League champion. Ibrahim Mbaye, 17 years and 250 days, was the joint-youngest starter for a reigning champion. Mayulu's equaliser marked PSG's 20th Champions League goal scored by a teenager, behind only Barcelona and Ajax. Nuno Mendes assisted Mayulu and praised the young players for stepping up amid injuries, while Mayulu emphasised team identity and resilience.
