Monaco coach Leonardo Jardim admits that Paris Saint-Germain were simply too strong for his side in Saturday's 4-1 Coupe de la Ligue final defeat.
-
Goals from Julian Draxler, Di Maria and brace from Cavani condemned Monaco to loss.
-
Jardim was quick to stress Monaco still have plenty to play for this season with Coupe de France, Ligue 1 and Champions League glory all still within their reach.
-
"Our objective was to win the final, but PSG were superior. They were much too strong this evening," Jardim said at a news conference.
-
"It was the first time in a final for a lot of our players. This was an important experience for them. PSG have a lot of experienced players and are used to playing finals. It had been seven years since we last played one.
-
"We conceded two goals at crucial moments, one at the end of the first half and another early in the second half.
-
"But that we lost here does not mean we will not be able to perform in the remainder of the season.
-
"Every competition has its place and is different. We have a Coupe de France game against Lille coming up and then turn our focus to Ligue 1 again."
