Presnel Kimpembe returned to the pitch for Paris Saint-Germain after two years out due to injury, participating in a 2-0 victory over Le Mans in the Coupe de France. This match marked his first appearance since a knee injury in February 2023. Kimpembe expressed his joy and emotions post-match, declaring himself a 'warrior' after the long recovery. PSG, the tournament's defending champions, aim to extend their record titles and, under coach Luis Enrique, managed to navigate a challenging match successfully, avoiding upsets seen in previous games of the tournament.
It wasn't an easy match. We know that the Coupe de France is important to us. It's a difficult competition; we've seen that with other Ligue 1 clubs who have gone out.
Of course, there's lots of emotion. After almost two years out, it makes me happy, it's mad. I'm a warrior, a soldier.
I just feel proud to wear this shirt with this badge again, and to have the chance to make the most of it with my team-mates.
It was a typical Coupe de France match. Dangerous, unpredictable. There are a lot of things you can't control. But I think we did a good job.
