The without-fault of the champions of France continues on the European scene. With a fourth victory in four games, on the lawn of Real Madrid (2-0), Paris-Saint-Germain offered, Thursday, November 18, a quarter-final of the Women’s Champions League. The Parisian, finalists of the competition in 2015 and 2017, show a perfect balance of two days from the end of the pipe: twelve points out of twelve, 13 goals marked, no cashed.
This victory, which gives the PSG the first place of the group – synonymous with a priori draw more favorable for the quarterfinals scheduled in March -, relieves a difficult context. Coach Didier Olle-Nicolle had evacuated, Wednesday in a press conference, the idea of a team leaded by the revelation of the Hamraoui case eight days ago, but the players remained on a shipwreck in the Grand Championship Rival Lyonnais Sunday (6-1).
The Parisians were “affected” by the aggression of their teammate and his media spin-offs, entrusted on Thursday morning the selector of the France team, Corinne deacon, revealing his list for the November gathering.
Always without hamraoui or diallo
Always deprived of Kheira Hamraoui and Aminata Diallo, witness of aggression, PSG timidly started his meeting in Madrid. Real, crushed 4-0 and had not framed the slightest shot in the previous match at the Princes Park, showed other intentions at Alfredo di Stefano Stadium.
By the e Minute, the Canadian GUITERE OF THE PSG, Stephanie Labbé, tenured instead of Barbora Votikova, had to be used on a 30-meter striking of Olga Carmona, two minutes after a first alert on a head of Esther Gonzalez.
But soon after the half hour of play, the current Best D1 French (8 goals), Marie-Antoinette Katoto, has still been a formidable efficiency for the opening of the score (1-0 , 33 e ). The French international cut off the outside of the right foot a free kick of Swiss Ramona Bachmann, tenured instead of Sandy Baltimore.
In the second period, the Stéphanie Labbe Olympic champion was still valuable on a typing Esther Gonzalez (51 e ). After stopping on the guardian Misa Rodriguez at the 63 e Minute, Sakina Karchaoui made the break for Paris (2-0) following a beautiful number on his left wing. The powerful shot of the 24-year-old French international, touched by Rodriguez, ended at the bottom of the nets and completed this success.
If the Parisians have already assured their presence in shifts, the Lyonnaises, the winning sevenths of the C1, will have, they, wait after their defeat, Wednesday, against the Bayern Munich (1-0).
