They will also be competing in the FIFA Club World Cup, which starts in June. "It's been an exceptional week for us. A classic always motivates players from both teams, and I think we put on a great show tonight," Luis Enrique told reporters. "It's difficult to get the ball to Marseille, and even more so to PSG. Each coach tried to play his cards right. It's obvious that after a game like Liverpool, we had the chance to play a classic and that kept us on our toes. "I'm very happy with my team and the support of our supporters. Our aim is to win Ligue 1, to win all the trophies, that's our hope.
