In front of the score and with numerical superiority, PSG nevertheless trembled in the second half, the Lensois being very close to equalizing on several occasions.

The clash between RC Lens and PSG kept all its promises on Sunday, at the end of the 18th day of Ligue 1. Because if the capital club finally won 2-0 and thus stunned the championship by taking eight points ahead of Nice, the Sang et Or have held off their visitors for a long time, despite a complicated scenario to say the least.

Because after missing an entry penalty, the Lensois saw Jonathan Gradit being sent off shortly before the break while Luis Enrique’s men had opened the scoring after half an hour of play. However, Franck Haise’s men still manhandled PSG in the second half, Vitinha pointing out an obvious relaxation in the Parisian camp.

“Sometimes being in numerical superiority makes the task more complicated. Because we feel that the match is less difficult. Without doing it on purpose, we make less effort, we walk a meter less and that’s not good. It’s difficult to upset the opponent, to continue to make the same efforts as 11 against 11. I think that’s what happened but we still won.”he confided to the microphone of Prime Video.
