Following the convincing victory of Paris Saint-Germain against Aston Villa on the score of 3-1, Vitinha, Portuguese midfielder, wanted to emphasize the collective’s primary importance in this remarkable performance. Beyond any personal recognition, he insisted on the decisive role of team spirit as the driving force of Parisian success, recalling the need to never forget the origins and the journey travelled. Faced with the praises of Thierry Henry, who called him a “motor force”, he immediately reoriented attention towards the contribution of the entire group, stressing the difficulty of defeating a consolidated defence and the need to find spaces, thus testifying to his humility and collective consciousness.

Vitinha also highlighted the team’s ability to bounce back after a goal was awarded, welcoming the mobility and dynamism that enabled the PSG to score a third decisive goal. He said success cannot be attributed to an individual, but is the result of the synergy between the players, highlighting the club’s notable progress since the beginning of the season, marked by many doubts. According to him, this evolution is based on the unity of the team and the contribution of everyone, regardless of the changes of players, which only improve the overall performance.

Finally, Vitinha warned against complacency, recalling that victory is just a milestone on the way to a competition still underway. He stressed the need to remain vigilant and focused, highlighting the fundamental values that forged the team: solidarity, humility and mutual trust. He stated that PSG’s strength lies in the quality of its players, their ability to replace and surpass themselves, and that vigilance and consistency will be the keys to achieving the next stages of the competition.
