Paris Saint-Germain is diving again. After three consecutive victories, including a big success this week against Tottenham, in the Champions League, Luis Enrique’s men fell on the AS Monaco pitch, after conceding a goal from Minamino (1-0). A defeat which could have serious consequences in the event of a victory for OM against Toulouse this Saturday evening and even in the event of success for RC Lens against Angers, since they risk losing their first place and finishing the day in third place.
Lucas Chevalier was very scared
Questioned after the meeting, Lucas Chevalier (24) gave a rant, explaining that the pace of the matches and the recurring injuries did not help. “A lot of things didn’t work, we lacked impact, there were stupid losses of balls, but also in the aggressiveness… we weren’t 100%. Monaco was sharper, we pushed, but not enough to get victory today. This is about one goal. We play a lot of matches, it’s a special season, there are a lot of injuries”he first blurted out.
Before returning to a game event which shocked during his contact with Lamine Camara. From the 12th minute, the Monegasque midfielder tried to steal the ball from the Paris goalkeeper, but completely missed his tackle and could have seriously injured the French international, who remained on the ground for several seconds. The Senegalese international only received a yellow card, and the images of the goalkeeper’s ankle suggest that he did rather well.
Luis Enrique also surprised
Even Rafel Pol, Luis Enrique’s assistant, had difficulty understanding when he returned from the locker room, especially since Mr. Turpin was not called by the VAR after this action. “For my ankle? Honestly, it could be better. I think everyone saw it: today, my career could have changed, I was extremely lucky. Sometimes there are actions that must be avoided, and today, I know that I will be able to continue playing football every week. I was really very lucky”he blurted out beIN Sports.
Defended by Luis Enrique, who was also worried after the sulfurous tackle: “Lucas Chevalier was very lucky today, because I think… I’m not going to say anything more because it’s not my job, but it’s incredible! Lucas Chevalier was very lucky…”analyzed the Ile-de-France coach. More fear than harm for the goalkeeper of Paris Saint-Germain and the Blues.
