"It was almost perfect. I think we started the match intensely, with aggression both on and off the ball. We dominated, but it was difficult because they know how to play against us. The result shows a difference. We were able to score more goals, but it's a very important day for our supporters because we made history. It's significant: 5-0; that had never happened before."
"We saw the tifos, it's incredible, the level of the supporters at every match. We're used to it. They're always there, at every match. When we have problems, they're there. It's a real pleasure. This match is very important for confidence because we were clinical. But if I talk in terms of pressing or with the ball, we can be even more clinical. We're continuing on the same trajectory as last year."
Paris Saint-Germain overwhelmed Marseille 5-0 in Le Classique, moving two points clear at the top of Ligue 1.

PSG generated 4.4 expected goals from 22 shots, had seven on target and struck the woodwork four times. The win represented an unprecedented 5-0 Le Classique scoreline and featured prominent supporter tifos. Opta simulations place PSG as overwhelming title favourites, while Luis Enrique praised the intensity, clinical finishing and boost to confidence.
