PSG won in Lens this Sunday at the end of the 18th day of L1 (0-2). But the Blood and Gold did not disappoint.

The main thing is indeed the three points… Despite a more than perfect copy once again, the Parisians signed an extremely important victory on the Bollaert lawn this Sunday at the end of the 18e lifting of Ligue 1 (0-2). A success which allows him to feel comfortable at the head of the elite.

As a symbol, PSG started the game with an exploit from its goalkeeper, Donnarumma, who repelled Frankowski’s penalty from the 6e minute. At the half-hour mark, Barcola, well served by Mbappé, was responsible for punishing this artesian missed act (0-1, 30e). And Racing for having further compromised its chances before the break, with the expulsion of Gradit for a foul on the will-o’-the-wisp Barcola (45e+2).

Mbappé without pity

Returning from the locker room, although outnumbered, Lens continued to play their luck bravely. Only Donnarumma proved intractable until the end. At the end of the match, Luis Enrique’s men concluded a final counter to make the break, through Mbappé, on an offering from Dembélé (0-2, 89th). And Paris takes eight lengths ahead of Nice at the top of the championship. The RCL for its part remains eighth. With regrets.
