From an accounting standpoint, Paris Saint-Germain had a perfect evening. By winning (1-0) against Racing Club de Lens this Saturday evening at the Parc des Princes, the capital club made a gap in the championship on its pursuers.
After ten days of Ligue 1, Luis Enrique’s men are six points ahead of AS Monaco, eight over LOSC and nine over Olympique de Marseille. In other words, the Rouge et Bleu have taken a serious option for the title of champion of France, of which they were already the big favorites before the 2024-2025 financial year began. However, the picture is not so encouraging.
PSG should score significantly more goals
Once again, PSG sorely lacked offensive efficiency. After Bradley Barcola opened the scoring, the Parisians missed the chance to make the break countless times. Worse, even before the hour mark, they found themselves in numerical superiority, following the expulsion of Khusanov. At the end of the meeting, Ousmane Dembélé recognized this all-too-recurring shortcoming in his team.
“When we start the match, we do everything we can and we try to score as much as possible, entrusted the French international to the microphone of BeIN Sports. I think we could have scored two or three more goals. We lacked efficiency but it was a good match overall and Lens is a very good team too, who also put us in difficulty. We also had to be careful at the end of the match not to concede a goal that would frustrate us. »
