Press review: PSG backups, shooting ambitions and Ligue 1 kicks off | OneFootball

This Friday, August 15, the French press (regarding sports) focused on Paris Saint-Germain's substitutes, the desire to win more titles, and the start of the 2025-2026 Ligue 1 season tonight.

Le Parisien –

L’Equipe –

This PSG seems to still be hungry after its historic season. There is never a guarantee of success, and fatigue might set in at some point, but the Parisians showed remarkable determination on Wednesday against Tottenham in the European Super Cup. Lacking preparation and trailing 0-2, they gave it their all to come back. And their joy was genuine.

The Parisians want to win more, and the whole team still seems just as involved. While some are already considering some of the substitutes as leaving, Lee Kang-In or Gonçalo Ramos reminded everyone that they have a real role to play. Even though securing a starting position will be difficult. But the competition remains under coach Luis Enrique. These impressive performances will obviously need to be confirmed.

As for Ligue 1, it indeed starts this weekend, notably tonight with Rennes/OM. It's an opportunity, even though everything isn't decided in one match, to see if Marseille is ready to challenge PSG, as they have announced. We hope for a great year, with good play and contenders to challenge Paris. Even if PSG is still the favorite.
