Marquinhos played only a few minutes in the Ligue 1 match against Lorient for PSG on Saturday night, and there were speculations about whether it was a punishment. However, Luis Enrique, the coach of PSG, clarified the situation.
He stated that Marquinhos had some physical issues during the week, which is why he was on the bench. Danilo played in his place and also took over the captain’s armband. Luis Enrique emphasized that it wasn’t a punishment and explained, « Marquinhos had some physical problems during the week. Danilo performed very well. You will have to get used to it as I will often change the starting lineup. To win, you don’t need just 11 players, but 20. »
This suggests that the decision to start Danilo instead of Marquinhos was based on the player’s fitness and performance considerations, rather than being a disciplinary measure.
