‘Luis Enrique has improved PSG mentally, and we can do the same’ – Roberto De Zerbi ahead of Le Classique | OneFootball

The sense of anticipation is building in Marseille ahead of the second Classique of the season between Paris Saint-Germain and Olympique de Marseille on Sunday evening. Roberto De Zerbi spoke in his pre-match press conference attended by Get French Football News at the Stade Vélodrome instead of the the habitual pre-match formalities at Marseille’s training ground.The Italian coach was aware of the quality of his opponents on Sunday evening, who are full of confidence after knocking out Liverpool in the Champions League round of 16.  “From my point of view, PSG have improved mentally, Luis Enrique has specifically elevated them mentally – we can do the same.”“In the first match against them, we weren’t good enough XI vs XI in the first 20 minutes. We didn’t do what we needed to do,” said De Zerbi on OM’s 3-0 loss to Les Parisiens back in October. “This is why the mental aspect of the game is so important to me.”“The objective is to get our moral back up (from the Lens defeat) and have a clear head going into the game against PSG. We need to be balanced and ask more of the players.”GFFN | George Boxall – Reporting from the Stade Vélodrome, Marseille
