PSG Thrash Montpellier 6-0, Luis Enrique Hails ‘Perfection’

Paris Saint-Germain’s dominance continued unabated as they thrashed Montpellier 6-0 at the Parc des Princes, extending their perfect start to the Ligue 1 season. Coach Luis Enrique hailed the performance as “perfection,” highlighting the team’s collective brilliance.

Bradley Barcola led the scoring with a brace, while Marco Asensio, Achraf Hakimi, Warren Zaire-Emery, and Lee Kang-in also found the net. The victory marked PSG’s second six-goal performance in Ligue 1 under Luis Enrique, following their 6-2 triumph at Montpellier in March.

Despite the absence of Kylian Mbappe, PSG’s young squad, featuring several teenagers, displayed impressive verve and style. Joao Neves, a recent recruit from Benfica, made his first start, while Desire Doue, a member of France’s Olympic silver-winning team, made his debut as a substitute.

Luis Enrique praised the new signings, stating, “They are totally suited to our way of playing and I think they will all bring us a lot.” He emphasized the team’s versatility and eagerness to make history.

PSG’s financial superiority was evident against Montpellier, who have not signed any players this summer due to a decline in broadcast revenue. Montpellier coach Michel Der Zakarian acknowledged the gulf in quality, saying, “They were much stronger than us and dominated from beginning to end.”

The victory extends PSG’s unbeaten streak in Ligue 1 to 16 games, dating back to last season. They have now scored 10 goals in their opening two matches, suggesting they will be a formidable force in their quest for an 11th French title in 13 seasons.
