Marquinhos Neymar Silva: PSG victory emotion and Youth League success

Paris captain Marquinhos spoke with emotion about the PSG’s victory in the 2025 Champions League against Inter Milan, highlighting the support received from his Brazilian compatriots Neymar and Thiago Silva. He shared anecdotes about their encouraging messages before the game, demonstrating the importance of this support for him and the entire club. Neymar, who had already reached the C1 final in 2020 with the PSG, had expressed his conviction in the club’s victory and had encouraged Marquinhos to lead his team. Thiago Silva, too, shared the same feeling, creating an atmosphere of emotion and motivation around the Parisian captain.

At the same time, the Paris Saint-Germain reserve team started the Youth League on a positive note with a large 5-1 victory over Atalanta U19. Despite a difficult start to the game with a cashed goal, the young Parisians were able to bounce with goals from Chtai Telamio, Ndjantou (who scored a triple) and Moungengue. This victory allows them to temporarily position themselves in 4th place in their group before their next trip to Barcelona. Coach Jean-François Vullliez praised the team spirit and determination of young players.

Finally, Gianluigi Donnarumma, Manchester City’s new goaltender, expressed his pride and enthusiasm at a press conference before the Champions League match against Naples. He stressed that his arrival was a long will and that he was honoured to join a club of this size. Donnarumma also expressed her gratitude to his former Parisian teammates, with whom he had strong ties, and wished the best for them. For his part, Luis Enrique unveiled the list of players summoned for the match against Atalanta, with the return of Kvartsakhelia and Lee, but also the absence of Doué, Dembélé and Beraldo.
