Trivia : a red card was given on the play but to whom?


Answer : to Edouard Michut in the white shirt.

 

[gary69]

Not sure how much he could have done to stop it happening, but Michut's boot went pretty badly to opponent's (24) knee right after that sequence.

Michut did rise his leg to the knee when it originally was about to make contract much lower. Again, I don't know if his movement was voluntary or not. But this follow through was left out of that video, and that was what earned him the red card.

 

[Evilo]

Yes but it was a direct result of the first tackle.
And the VAR wasn't enough.

Answer : to Edouard Michut in the white shirt.

I mean you can see the connection with his studs and the opponents shin.

BUT... It's obviously an accident and the result of the other player tackling him.

Whoever gave that red (VAR) doesn't understand football.

What a goal by Sanches for Lille, just a shame he hasn't been consistently injury free this season, their campaign could have gone differently.

 

[luiginb]

Kimbembe shows his limitations and Donnarumma gets beat on the near corner, and old man Gameiro puts Strasbourg ahead of PSG in the 3rd minute. I wonder if PSG has any motivation to play this match, Pocchetino might have been better off just letting the kids play the away games and the stars on home soil.

2 goals 1 assist for Mbappe already.

 

[gary69]

Mbappe scores his 2nd of the night, it's seems like game over at 3-1 with 70 mins played.

 

[gary69]

Spoke too soon as Strasbourg equalize couple of minutes into added time.

@Evilo Seko Fofana and Alban Lafont have looked really good in this game. Is this normal for them?

 

[Evilo]

They are usually even better.
Fofana is one of the top 3 players this season. Only Mbappe is clearly ahead.
Lafont has arguably been the best goalie in the league.

I saw Fofana pencilled in at 6 but he seemed to be more of an 8 B2B when I watched. Is he a 6?

 

[Evilo]

Not a 6. Doucoure is Lens' 6. He's a B2B 8 as you said.

 

[Gecklund]

Not a 6. Doucoure is Lens' 6. He's a B2B 8 as you said.

Could be an interesting addition for a more mid table side. Someone like say Brighton.

 

[Evilo]

I think he's more than that. He'd be PSG's second best midfielder after Verratti. He's from Paris originally and he came back to France to be closer to his family. Many in France are pushing for PSG to sign him.

 

[Power Man]

Holy crap what a sequence by Belaili

 

[JJ68]

Not the best thing for Messi to have gone to this league.....or team.

Also David struggling to end the season.....

 

[Evilo]

Yep David struggling in L1 right now. Like Messi.
This is a tough league.

 

[gary69]

Fight for the European spots gets tighter as Marseille clearly lose at home against Lyon. Certainly one of the quietest crowds in Marseille during the 2nd half and towards the end.

 

[luiginb]

Those kids in Lyon's defense very impressive.

Those kids in Lyon's defense very impressive.

Lukeba and Gusto are incredible for their age.

 

[gary69]

Tchouameni's late strike takes Monaco into the half-time with a 1-0 lead away to Lille.

If he moves to a foreign club after this season, hopefully he will have a better career than Tiemoue Bakayoko who was similarily hyped in this club some years ago.

 

[Evilo]

Or a better career than Fabinho...

 

[gary69]

Tchouameni double, nice long range shot gives them the lead again.

 

[Savi]

PSG better be happy Clement only arrived at ASM in January or they would have lost the league too
