After Paris Saint-Germain (PSG)’s brilliant victory over Real Madrid in the semifinal of the World Cup of Clubs (4-0), the Parisian side Ashraf Hakimi stressed the importance of collective alchemy within the team. He highlighted the satisfaction he felt playing alongside his teammates, stressing the need for a common connection and leadership to achieve good results. Hakimi, who participated in the third realization by Paris, stressed that the overrun and offensive activity of the team allowed to disrupt the opponents. He also praised the collective solidarity, a result of the long-standing work led by Luis Enrique, and expressed confidence in the possibility of winning the title.

The PSG’s performance against Real Madrid was seen as a demonstration of collective strength, exceeding the sum of individual talents. Players emphasized the crucial role of team play, collective dry-cleaning and shared mastery, key elements integrated by coach Luis Enrique for two seasons. This transformation has resulted in a more cohesive team, capable of managing pressure moments and maintaining a constant effort, even in the face of formidable opponents. Vitinha stressed that the difference was made not by specific style changes, but by greater cohesion and constant collective effort.

This victory marks a new stage in the transformation of the PSG, where the importance of the collective takes precedence over the individual ego. The team, although having demonstrated even greater offensive potential, focused on solidarity and cohesion, which was decisive in the outcome. The ability to respect the opponent while playing his own game, and to remain united in the face of adversity, bears witness to a collective maturity acquired under the direction of Luis Enrique. This victory, more than just a game, represents the consecration of a new game philosophy and an unprecedented potential for success for the Parisian club.
