'The atmosphere is very good' - PSG still buoyant despite Manchester United loss, insists Rafinha

The Paris Saint-Germain squad have retained a good atmosphere around the club, despite a 2-1 Champions League loss to Manchester United last week, according to Rafinha.

Marcus Rashford’s late goal consigned the Parisians to a shock opening night loss against Ole Gunnar Solskjaer’s side, and in the aftermath, they were forced to field questions over their desire and togetherness.

They responded at the weekend by sweeping past lowly Dijon 4-0 – a match in which Neymar caught the eye and Kylian Mbappe scored a quick-fire double after coming off the bench – but they now face a crunch encounter in Turkey against Istanbul Basaksehir on Wednesday.
