Check out what the Parisians had to say after their Liqui Moly StarLigue Matchday 2 win away to Saint-Raphaël (25-33).
"We are very happy with the result. We knew it wouldn't be an easy match here. But the team showed great spirit. At times, Saint-Raphaël could have widened the gap, but we were mentally strong and didn't concede the goals that could have made the difference. The team really showed great fighting spirit this afternoon. Now the players will rest and we will prepare for a very important match against Pelister at Coubertin. We will do everything we can to take two points in front of our home crowd and celebrate with our fans."
"It was tough going for the first 45 minutes. But after that, our defence helped us a lot and we were able to take the lead thanks to several successful counter-attacks. That did us a lot of good and we are very happy with tonight's result. I hope that on Thursday, the outcome will be the same in the Champions League against Pelister. In any case, we will do everything we can to make sure that happens."
