It was a move that we worked on, we found footage from different leagues - Christophe Galtier

Christophe Galtier, coach of PSG, also talked about the performance of the team after the match. He also opened up on the fastest goal from Mbappe.

“The goal after 8 seconds? It was a move that we worked on, we found footage from different leagues, and even from our youth team in the Youth League who managed to score that kick-off against Salzburg last season. We talked about it yesterday, we saw the footage, we practiced it in training, obviously when it succeeds like that after 8 seconds, it's very satisfying,” said Galtier in his statement.
