While PSG relaunches Ligue 1 on Friday (8:45 p.m.) with a shock against RC Strasbourg, at the Parc des Princes, and AS Monaco and OM play on Saturday, against Angers and Le Havre, to also prepare for their next Champions League match, the 8th day of the championship concludes with FC Nantes-Losc on Sunday evening (8:45 p.m.). Or a poster between the unconvincing Mastiffs (7th) and the moribund Canaries who have only won one match so far.
Bruno Genesio's team snatched a point against PSG (1-1) on October 5, before the international window, thanks to a goal from Ethan Mbappé in the 85th minute, to the great delight of his big brother Kylian and his father Wilfrid, present in the stands at Stade Pierre-Mauroy.
Precisely, it is not the 2018 world champion Olivier Giroud but rather Ethan Mbappé who is highlighted by Ligue 1+ a few days before the match. “Ethan Mbappé clutch again? »asks the broadcaster created by the LFP to announce on its social networks this next Sunday evening Nantes-Lille shock.
Competition for Ethan Mbappé
Ethan Mbappé, 18, has not yet won his place in the Losc eleven. The left-handed midfielder is still blocked by offensive players more experienced than him like Félix Correia, Osame Sahraoui, Hakon Arnar Haraldsson or Matias Fernandez-Pardo. But Bruno Genesio praised his desire to make a difference when he came into play last season. The player trained at PSG was unable to be decisive during a first exercise marred by injuries in the North.
Used as a backup on the right side of the attack, the native of Montreuil has already achieved two goals this season since he gave victory to Lille against Toulouse on September 14. Mbappé should have playing time on Sunday against Nantes because he will not play next Thursday against Paok, in Mauroy, not being registered on the list for the Europa League.
