Paris Saint-Germain continues to impress on the European scene. After beating Atalanta Bergamo (4-0) and FC Barcelona (1-2), the capital club crushed Bayer Leverkusen (2-7) on Tuesday evening for the 3e
day of the league stage of the Champions League.
A meeting marked in particular by the very bad gesture of Robert Andrich on Désiré Doué. The Bayer captain was guilty of a violent elbow in the face of the young Frenchman in the first half (33e). After VAR intervention, the German international was logically sent off.
Stunned and with a bloody mouth, Désiré Doué sat for many minutes on the lawn. But that did not prevent him from regaining his place, and then being decisive. Indeed, the former Rennais scored a double just before the break (41e and 45e+3).
Gifted hit in the face, Dembélé feels bad for him
This bad gesture by Andrich on Doué did not fail to make Ousmane Dembélé react. On the substitutes' bench at the time of the action, alongside Marquinhos in particular, the 2025 Ballon d'Or put his head in his hands when he saw the images on the screen placed in front of him, clearly shocked by the dirty blow inflicted on his teammate.
Hit in a calf during the French team's victory over Ukraine (0-2) on September 5, Désiré Doué made his comeback to competition a week ago against Strasbourg (3-3). A decisive passer against the Alsatians, the 20-year-old French international continued on the Bayer Leverkusen field with two goals.
