In Ligue 1, PSG is decidedly unsinkable. As evidenced by his great victory brought back from the Stade Louis II, Wednesday, in the advanced match of the 16e daytime. After having the score thanks to Désiré Doué, the capital club found themselves trailing 2-1 in the second half and everything seemed to be going in the wrong direction. Eliesse Ben Seghir had thus equalized on a not very obvious penalty awarded to the Monegasques on a handball from Marquinhos
Above all, PSG had lost Gianluigi Donnarumma from the 22e minute due to a (very) nasty sole from Wilfried Singo on the face of the Italian goalkeeper. The injury was impressive to say the least and the former Milan player, victim of facial trauma in addition to “multiple wounds”, was left with ten staples installed. However, Mr. Letexier, after granting a corner, was satisfied with a simple free kick in favor of the Parisian camp. Enough to provoke the anger of Luis Enrique and the Parisian goalkeeper, who came to ask him to account at half-time.
“For me, it’s worth straight red”
The referee, who therefore considered that Wilfried Singo was only guilty of an attitude “reckless”says law 12 of the laws of the game, “when a player competes for the ball without attention, consideration or precaution”refused to speak after the meeting. But his former colleagues do not spare him, in particular because he did not hesitate to exclude Amine Harit against PSG for an involuntary clash with Marquinhos.
“For me, it’s worth straight red,” former referee Saïd Ennjimi told L’Equipe. Singo, like Harit, probably didn’t want to hurt, but their foot ended up where it shouldn’t have been. Why don’t the VAR referees, who intervened against Harit, come and help Mr. Letexier there? »
Unsurprisingly, the Parisian camp had it bad like Gonçalo Ramos. “We all saw his face. I don’t know how it’s not a red card. They need to protect and tonight, Donnarumma was not protected. They came to us at the start of the season to tell us that they were going to protect us. That wasn’t true tonight.”he estimated, with Marquinhos adding: “If the VAR is there, you have to tell him. We must protect the players. »
