Luis Enrique refuses to worry about Ferran Torres, who failed to score against Troyes. According to But! Football Club, PSG won 1-0, but their Spanish forward, who started up front, was denied four times by goalkeeper Hillel Konaté, in the 38th, 45th, 45th+2, and 67th minutes.

A goal drought sets in

Foot Mercato describes a player who has been silent for several weeks and is going through a difficult period in a Parisian jersey. The site places this match on Saturday evening. According to But! Football Club, this lack of efficiency contrasts with the Spaniard's notable debut in Paris.

What the coach says

Speaking to the press, the Parisian coach recalled that the concerns were initially focused on another forward. "At the start of the season, everyone was worried about Mika Godts, not Ferran, and now it's the opposite. Don't worry about any Paris-Saint-Germain player. It's normal for forwards to miss and score goals," he stated.

He then clarified his main requirement: "The sine qua non condition, for me, is that the forwards continue to have big chances." He also praised the opponent: "The goalkeeper was at a very good level, and so was their team."

A lackluster victory

Paris struggled for a long time against a low and disciplined block, despite clear domination, reports But! Football Club. Illya Zabarnyi opened the scoring in the 39th minute, from a cross by Senny Mayulu. The match came six days after the 6-0 win at Villarreal.

PSG has strung together eight victories between the last two international breaks and has eleven consecutive wins in all competitions. Luis Enrique acknowledged: "It has been a constant for the last three years: when we play this type of match, it is always difficult." He added: "I am very happy, especially when we win this type of match."
