PSG Live
It was important not to be late tonight at the Stade Océane for Le Havre – PSG, the first match of the season in Ligue 1. While Luis Enrique took the gamble of starting the young Ibrahima Mbaye, 16 years old, many players were on the bench like Dembélé, Barcola or Marquinhos. After a superb one-touch sequence, Kang-In Lee is served by Gonçalo Ramos in the box. Less than two minutes after the kick-off, the South Korean curls his shot and deceives Desmas. In the first half, Le Havre showed two faces: 25 first minutes with a glaring lack of aggressiveness with twenty last minutes where they were more dangerous, creating opportunities. If the Parisians easily had the rare opposing opportunities, they kept this advantage in the score. Note the exit due to injury of Gonçalo Ramos, affected in the left ankle and replaced by Randal Kolo Muani.
After the break, Luis Enrique's players were punished. After the entry into play of new signing João Neves, the Parisians suffered an equalizer from Gautier Lloris on a free kick before conceding a second goal, ultimately disallowed for a handball by Josué Casimir. In the second half, Kang-In Lee hit the bar after a first post hit by Kolo Muani in the first half. &Twenty minutes from the end of regulation time, Bradley Barcola and Ousmane Dembélé came into play to make the difference and it was not until the 85th minute of play that the second named beat Desmas with a header after a cross from João Neves. The following minute, Barcola performed an individual feat as is his habit to offer himself a solo goal. Before added time, Kolo Muani won a penalty which he converted. This victory launches the season of the Parisians who will face Montpellier next week. If the score is clear for the Le Havre, there are many positive things to remember such as the surge of pride at the end of the first period or the solidarity between players in duels and defensive efforts.
With our colleagues at DAZN, Luis Enrique gave news of Gonçalo Ramos, who went off injured in the first half: "I'm not a doctor but I think it looks pretty serious. I don't know how many weeks he'll be out but it's serious.”
After his players' victory, Luis Enrique shared: his satisfaction at the microphone of DAZN: “It's a strange feeling, we lack rhythm. We try to play, we scored; the first goal very quickly and it put a kind of slowness in the game, we can't play at this false rhythm, we have to play with more intensity. But I'm happy. I'm very happy with the attitude of the players, with the performance. But there was too much waiting during the match, too many ball losses on easy balls and it put the opponent back in the match. At the end of the match, we created something for ourselves. a lot of situations which allowed us to score two additional goals."
Relive the three consecutive Parisian goals in live conditions:
At the microphone of DAZN, João Neves gave his first impressions for his official debut in the Paris jersey: “I think it's a very good way to start the season. I'm very happy to be here. I hope I can continue to help the team. The most important thing is the team, it will always be like that for me. We have seen the individual qualities and the collective, I hope to be a very good player here. I am here to give my best.”
