The match of generations has already been played out and it is coming to your screens soon. It was not on a field but on a stage, that of the Dôme de Paris and in front of 2,500 curious people, that the 1998 and 2018 world champions found themselves face to face two weeks ago, for the program In the sauce which will be released on Wednesday on Netflix.
Garden side: Marcel Desailly, Emmanuel Petit, Christophe Dugarry, Robert Pirès and Frank Leboeuf. Court side: Blaise Matuidi, Samuel Umtiti, Presnel Kimpembe, Adil Rami and Steve Mandanda. In the middle, comedians follow one another to chain the jokes like a referee distributes cards. And everyone gets what they deserve!
Starting with Marcel Desailly, cut by Paul de Saint-Sernin on a fairly personal subject. “Marcel, for those who don’t know, he has more illegitimate children than he has won titles in his career. He has won a lot, Marcel,
he blurted out like this. Statistically, in the audience this evening, you don’t know, there are ten children of Marcel. »

Do you find it funny but sensitive? This is the principle of “roast”, a very popular concept in the United States, where celebrities agree to be lit live.
“As long as it is done with respect and kindness, we have the right to discuss all subjects”announces the artist in an extract from the show relayed on social networks.
“We talk to them like they talk to each other in the locker room, he explains in The Team. Between them, they gossip about Umtiti about his injury or Desailly about the fact that he has children all over the world and that he is losing all his sorrel. There, it’s destabilizing because it’s on TV but deep down they love it when their friends get beaten up, you can see it on their faces. »
