PSG Confront a Unique Issue: Insufficient Goal Scoring in Ligue 1 2025 - SCCG Management

The European champions rank only fifth in Ligue 1 for goal-scoring, trailing behind Marseille, Lille, Monaco, and Strasbourg.

“It’s both beautiful and frustrating,” says Luis Enrique. The Paris Saint-Germain manager has mixed feelings about his team’s league performances. In PSG matches, one team tends to attack while the other defends. “I like attacking a low block,” he asserts. “It is the phase of play that I am most familiar with. I am very respectful of how other teams play. It is a different kind of football from ours, it’s atypical, but I understand and accept it.”

For PSG, confronting low blocks is unavoidable; it’s a reality stemming from the talent imbalance caused by financial disparities. Typically, PSG’s talent prevails, overcoming the low-block defense with varying challenges. However, this season has posed more difficulties.
