Dugarry distributes good and bad points
Before tackling the Rhone club, Dugarry was keen to highlight the quality of the Parisian performance: “We must highlight the first 30 minutes of PSG. Their first half hour is incredible. With the replacements, you have to do them. They were in osmosis. And Désiré Doué was exceptional. » High praise for a PSG in full control, despite the absences of several starters.
This Parisian domination, however, highlighted the shortcomings of an OL incapable of responding to the challenge. Dugarry did not fail to point this out, believing that the Lyonnais made the task too easy for their opponents: “Bravo to Paris! They played in an armchair. »
Tactical choices strongly questioned
