a few minutes of play and Donnarumma already takes a penalty

El Aynaoui standing

The Lens midfielder comes to his senses and will be able to continue the match after the ball he has just received in the face. The cold shouldn’t help.

El Aynaoui stunned

Vitinha tries his luck once again but his shot lands directly in the face of the Lens midfielder. The referee interrupts the game. The trainers take care of Neil El Aynaoui.

What a work of Wahi!

The former Montpellier player is alone in the last 30 meters but manages to get rid of Donnarumma and follow up with a powerful shot deflected by the Parisian goalkeeper.

Vitinha tries

The Portuguese is not attacked and takes the opportunity to get closer to the zone of truth and strike but Medina is on the trajectory.

El Aynaoui is coming back well

The young Lens midfielder makes the effort and chases Carlos Soler to take the ball from him in the Lens penalty area.

Mbappé pushes too much

Vitinha finds Kylian Mbappé in the penalty area but the latter fails to take the ball as he wanted. Brice Samba can relaunch his camp.

Mbappé unbalanced in the area

The Parisian scorer requested the penalty following Kevin Danso’s push into the Lens area. Jérôme Brisard does not report anything.

Medina very high

The Argentine defender does not hesitate to go very high to press the opposing defense. Unfortunately for him he cannot recover the ball and concedes the goal kick.

The Italian goalkeeper keeps his place

After the intervention of the trainers, Gianluigi Donnarumma takes his place and takes care of a dismissal. The game resumes with the Italian goalkeeper.

Donnarumma affected?

The Italian goalkeeper goes to the ground after an exit in front of Faitout Maouassa. He requests the intervention of the trainers. Concern for PSG.

Donnarumma’s stop!

It’s rare but Donnarumma didn’t dive and stayed in the middle. A profitable choice for the Italian goalkeeper because Frankowski had not chosen a side.

Wahi gets a penalty!

Barely five minutes of play and Lens can already open the score! Danilo Perreira is late and commits a foul on Elye Wahi. Jérôme Brisard points to the penalty point.

Wahi cannot continue, Mbappé almost scored

The Lens center forward is caught by Lucas Hernandez while his back is to goal. Elye Wahi is dispossessed of the ball and PSG goes on the counterattack. Mbappé tries his luck from a difficult angle but Samba pushes back.

Mbappé was offside

The PSG vice-captain is wanted behind the Artesian defense but he is flagged in an offside position after his sequence which resulted in a bar.

An average lawn

The Felix-Bollaert turf has, it seems, suffered from the cold and is very average to host this shock of the 18th day of Ligue 1.

Let’s go!

Jérôme Brisard kicks off this clash of the 18th day of Ligue 1 between Racing club de Lens and Paris-Saint-Germain!

Both teams return to the pitch

Bollaert intones the Marseillaise as the two teams enter the pitch. This clash between Lens and PSG concludes the 18th day of Ligue 1. The kick-off will be given in a few moments.

Racing can overtake OM

If PSG can fly to the top of Ligue 1, the Lensois could carry out a good operation in the event of success by getting back in front of OM in the ranking which was held in check by Strasbourg at the opening of the 18th day (1- 1).

A missed start to 2024 for Lens

The Sang et Or must recover after having experienced a difficult first match in 2024. Franck Haise’s men were eliminated in the 32nd finals of the Coupe de France by AS Monaco after a penalty shootout with twists and turns ( 2-2, 5 tab to 6).

PSG can take the lead

This shock of the 18th day of Ligue 1 could constitute an excellent opportunity for the Parisians to take off at the top of the Championship. Nice’s setback at Rennes (0-2) this Saturday leaves the Aiglons five lengths before this evening’s meeting at Bollaert.
