Paris Saint-Germain forward Desire Doue praised "unbelievable coach" Luis Enrique after their stunning 5-0 UEFA Champions League final win against Internazionale.
While PSG were the favourites going into the match in Munich, the one-sided nature of the win over Inter on Saturday evening was perhaps more unexpected.
The win completed a treble for the French side, and it was the first time that they lifted the Champions League in the club’s history.
Additionally, Enrique became just the second manager to complete a treble with two different sides, joining Pep Guardiola, who achieved the feat with Barcelona and Manchester City.
Speaking to TNT Sports, 19-year-old Doue, who scored twice against Inter, found it hard to describe his feelings, but was full of praise for Enrique.
He said: "I have no words. It's just incredible for me, simply incredible. I have no words, sorry. He's been here two years and he made history for the club.
"Tactically, mentally, that's a really good coach. An unbelievable coach, as a human being too, and it's a pleasure to work with him."
