Randal Kolo Muani and Gonçalo Ramos both scored their first goals for PSG in the team’s dominant win over Marseille on Sunday. The two attackers, who arrived at the club this summer, were in competition to start the match but ended up playing together up front.
After Kylian Mbappé was forced to leave the field due to an ankle injury, Kolo Muani, who was already in the starting lineup, and Ramos, who came off the bench, took advantage of the opportunity to make an impact on the game at Parc des Princes.
Kolo Muani, who joined PSG from Frankfurt for a fee of €95 million, and Ramos, who was recruited from Benfica for €65 million (excluding bonuses), both opened their scoring accounts for the club in this important match against Marseille.
“It was a magical and unforgettable evening for us and the supporters,” Kolo Muani expressed his delight on Prime Vidéo. “We made a statement and performed very well. We can be proud. The idea was to play our game, attack the spaces, and have possession. We had the chances and we converted them into goals. The atmosphere on the pitch during and after the match was incredible. I believe we will experience more of it this season.” The French forward appreciated the offensive system implemented by Luis Enrique against Marseille: “It’s a good tactical scheme, we have a lot of possession, we press and accelerate as soon as we lose the ball, and we executed it very well today.”
Ramos also had an emotional experience in his first classic encounter, scoring a brace, including a lightning-fast run by Kolo Muani towards the end of the match. “I’m happy because it’s a big victory against a strong team, and I managed to score my first goals,” the PSG number 9 reacted. “It’s special for me, it’s a moment to enjoy, but tomorrow is a new day and we need to already focus on the next match.”
