The reactions of Wilfried Singo and Guillermo Maripán
This was a first clean sheet for AS Monaco in almost three months. Against PSG, our Rouge et Blanc put in a solid match to obtain a draw (0-0). And as they managed to keep a clean sheet, Wilfried Singo, playing as a right back, and Guillermo Maripán in the middle, are clearly not foreign to this level of play. The two defender presented themselves in the mixed zone to talk about this match.🎙️
Good evening Wilfried. What do you take away from this match?
We had a good match collectively, we defended together, as a unit. I think it’s a good result to get a point, even though we had several chances that we didn’t manage to take advantage of. I’m happy because despite everything because we managed a clean sheet. We worked well collectively and we must continue this momentum next weekend against Strasbourg. If we do this, everything will be fine. We will take things match by match, there are no small teams.

You played on the right side of a four-man defense, how do you feel in this position?
As I have already been able to say, I am at the coach’s disposal, whether I am in central defense or on the right. I will respond wherever he wants to put me. We defended really well overall, the whole team worked well, and I’m happy with the result. “Radek” also had a very great match. He’s a great goalkeeper, he has the trust of the coach and the squad. I am happy with his performances.

Tell us about your duel against Kylian Mbappé in the first period.
When you are in a duel against this type of player, you really have to attack him with a lot of determination. His coming off at the break didn’t change much because we had prepared well for the match. We all worked together and we saw that in the result this evening.
The reaction of Guillermo Maripán
Good evening Guillermo. What do you make of this match?
We deserved to win tonight and we wanted to win this type of game against this type of team. I think it’s a negative result but we’re still happy because we had a clean sheet. Our first half was really good, the second a little less but as I said we deserved the victory. Today we played really well.

It is in this type of match that we actually see the best face of AS Monaco…
Yes, we can say that. These kinds of matches are always difficult to play because PSG are a really strong team. But it was really interesting to play this match as a team.
Tell us about your defensive performance tonight.
I felt pretty good. I’m used to playing in a 4-man defense, whether here with AS Monaco or with the national team. It was planned before the match to play in this defensive system. In training, we saw how to defend against teams who have very good attackers. It paid off, we are happy with the clean sheet.
