Ligue 1 publicly mocks the English

After Lens’ victory over Arsenal (2-1), Tuesday evening in the Champions League, the X account (ex-Twitter) of Ligue 1 did not fail to criticize the Premier League.

Twenty-one years later, the Bollaert stadium experienced a memorable evening on Tuesday for the great return of the Champions League. Opposed to the vice-champions of England, Arsenal, on the occasion of the 2nd day of the group stage, RC Lens won in style (2-1), after having been led 0-1, in an atmosphere of fire.

“The Farmers’ League strikes again”

An exploit which inspired the Ligue 1 account X (formerly Twitter). The latter posted a message to the Premier League: “Farmers League strikes again”also specifying that the Sang et Or inflicted a first defeat this season on the Gunners.

And the L1 X account didn’t stop there. He took a photo of the celebration of Mauro Icardi, former resident of the French championship and who scored the winning goal for Galatasaray against Manchester United (2-3), accompanied by the caption: “Same energy”. Proper chambering.
