Luis Enrique will look to grab hold of the trophy

There is a chance for PSG to complete yet another routine French double. Olympique Lyonnais and Paris Saint-Germain are all set to go head-on in the Coup de France final.

Lyon’s disastrous summer under John Textor saw a turn-around in their fortunes with Pierre Sage’s December appointment. Since then, they have won 20 of 25 matches and secured European qualification.

As for Luis Enrique‘s season recap at Paris Saint-Germain, he has done what many managers are expected to do when they are at the helm. The bare minimum! Win the league, and reach the finals of the Coup de France. So, the ex-Barca coach will be looking to get his hands on this trophy to avoid skepticism.
