PSG coach Luis Enrique was left delighted with their victory over Atalanta on Wednesday night.

PSG opened up their Champions League defence with a resounding result through goals from Khvicha Kvaratskhelia, Marquinhos, Goncalo Ramos and Nuno Mendes.

Enrique said afterwards, "I think it's a very good start and that partly reflects our style of play against an excellent Atalanta, a physically strong and technically good team that presses you and bothers you. But I think we're doing very well and deserved this win.

"It's true that our schedule is a journey full of ups and downs, with many challenges, with many obstacles. But it's true that if we go back a year, our match against Girona ended 0-0 in the 92nd minute, I think we were much superior today.

"We all know the importance of being healthy, and the victory was evident."
