PSG having a draw is certainly a shock and a quite good chunk of money lost for me but it's fine, I had some good games on UCL this week and La Liga was quite profitable so I ended up in profit all together this week, and one loss didn't really change much, I also lost on United too but that's fine, other games were all wins.

I think it's clear that we are going to end up with PSG getting good results again and again, but have some bad games like this along the way, they can't finish the season with 100% win rate, they have to lose points somewhere. I believe that draw was a disgrace level of display on how they played, it's not the score, of course they can draw, but it was how they played, they played terrible all game long.
From look of things PSG will not be left alone the season for the title race in time of points gap, this season the had played only five matches and the top three are have almost equal record that is played the same number of game, the same win, draw and also the same points but different goals scored, this what makes PSG to stayed at the top, PSG really have to work harder to gain more points and goals to be ahead of them, Marseille had their last match against Lyon and it was a away game and at the beginning they got red card which make them play 10 against 11 throughout the match and they still managed to rescued win, this should put more tension on PSG that they have gotten a good competitor for the title this time.

Once a PSG fan when Neymar Messi and Ramos performed together for PSG and at that time I followed France Ligue very well but not as much as it used to be
Why not because Neymar, Messi, and Mbappe, but not Ramos?

Because Mbappe is an attacking player, a super star player, while Ramos is a central defender and don't have too big connection with Messi and Neymar in PSG attacks. Ramos was also injured a lot and he missed many matches for PSG and I guess you missed Mbappe when writing this post.

Quote
But I still have a love for PSG and I try to watch PSG matches from that love. As a PSG fan I never worry about winning the title in the local league tournament and even though Mbappe is gone this season I am not worried because I have a belief in this team that this team will win the title in the local league tournament anyway.
Mbappe is already in PSG history by breaking a record of a club best scorer from Edinson Cavani. He ambitiously wanted to find new challenge that can not be given by PSG so that they no longer could work together. Regret or not, a new chapter for both PSG and Mbappe turns on and PSG show that they are playing well in Ligue 1 without Mbappe in this season.

Quote
But feeling bad for this team works when they don't do well in the Champions League. The team spent a lot of money to do well in the Champions League but they never got good results. So I hope they buy players according to the plan so that this team can do well in the Champions League.
Success will come if they continue to invest money for their club and have star players but if they want to save cost and get success earlier, they must change their strategies by not focusing too much on super star players and making good balance in their squad between attacking players and defensive players. In addition, they must improve quality of their scout team in order to find good youth players globally and bring them to PSG.

I also have almost no doubt that PSG will be champions in Ligue 1 again, but the intrigue remains now, after PSG lost points, Marseille immediately took advantage of this. Although at first it seemed that everything was over for them, when at the beginning of the match Balerdi received two yellow cards in a few minutes and left the field, then it seemed that Lyon could win. But then something incomprehensible happened, Lacazette did not score a penalty, and in the second half the game became even, I did not expect that Marseille could win in such a match.

Yes, it was bad when they had the advantage in numbers even from the 5th minute but they got themselves into trouble and lost a game they should have won.
They tried to lock down Marseille's defense with possession and tried a lot of chances but their mistake was not seeing the quick counter-attacks which should have been anticipated as an attacking scheme and they didn't do that.

Lyon's disaster from last season still can't seem to be fixed until now even though last season towards the end of the season their performance had started to improve but at the beginning of this season they were like the same Lyon as the beginning of last season where they were too fragile in defense.
With this result, their situation is still not too good because 5 matches only 1 win and 1 draw received the rest they have to lose points.
Last season Lyon also did not start the season with the best performance, but they improved after some time and managed to occupy the 6th position to qualify for the Europa League group stage this season. Lyon got 13 defeats last season, 5 draws and 16 wins, that was enough to take them to the Europa League this season.

This season is no different from last season, their performance is really bad at the beginning of the season. 3 defeats, 1 win and 1 draw is not a pleasant performance at all, so they need to improve if they don't want to fall far behind in the standings. Lyon failed to win against 10 Marseille players in the previous match, in fact Marseille who played with 10 players since the 5th minute managed to secure 3 points in their away game. Bad for Lyon, obviously it's very bad.
That is the reason why I say that Lyon's disaster continues even though there was momentum at the end of the season to make the start of this season follow its style but Lyon is still stuck in a bad start to the season just like the start of last season.

Obviously this is a very bad condition for them because after all only 1 victory in 5 matches conducted has clearly shown the readiness of Lyon which is less mature which makes their condition unable to develop.
Indeed, there are still many opportunities to make their performance better, especially at the end of the season they can always take advantage of that, but when their performance is not changed from now on, Lyon will only be considered as an ordinary club later, not a club that is always a stumbling block for Ligue 1 clubs in the race for trophies.

Marseille does have a chance to be a title contender, although PSG is still considered tough enough to beat in the competition. The presence of De Zerbi as manager has raised fan expectations, and so far Marseille does seem to have developed better than last season. Of course we hope that the competition for the trophy in Ligue 1 can be more competitive, so that it will be more interesting for us to follow. Maybe this is the season where PSG needs to be more vigilant.
If you are a PSG fan, then I don't think you need to worry too much about the Ligue 1 competition. PSG is the only team that is most favored to defend its title, even if today you find several teams including Marseille and Monaco have the same points. with PSG. A draw in the match against Reims does not reduce PSG's probability of winning the title this season, so I don't think you and all other PSG fans should worry about it.

Monaco and Marseille are basically good teams, but I can't believe these two teams can maintain consistent performance. Even PSG, they also cannot maintain their good performance throughout the season and they may still have a draw or loss until the end of the season. Naturally, it is a natural thing when several teams can compete well.

In the most important and last game of the week, the action didn't stop for a minute. Lyon hosted Marseille at home. Although Balerdi left his team with 10 men in the 5th minute, Marseille put up a great fight. Marseille deserve credit for beating their opponents 3-2 away with 10 men. Towards the end of the first half, Lyon's Lacazette failed to capitalize on a penalty. Despite this, Lyon started the second half fast and took the lead. Marseille, on the other hand, did not give up the match despite being down to 10 men and brought the score to 2-1. In extra time, first Lyon equalized the score and then Rowe scored the winning goal for Marseille.

The alarm bells are actually ringing for Lyon. Look, you finish the match with a defeat despite taking the lead against an opponent down to ten men. This is unacceptable no matter where you are in the world. Marseille may be a good team, but Olympic Lyon should not have lost the match against an opponent down to ten men after taking the lead. They may have started the French league badly, but they should not continue badly. They may not perform well in the second half of the season like last year. In this case, they may even be in a position to be relegated from the league.

Lyon is once again starting the season terribly, and the financial trouble they are in is beyond recovery point, they basically put up every player on sale and they are having trouble building a squad that can do fine.

I mean surely they are losing money but they can't keep being this bad, they barely survived relegation last season, while they finished well and high up, they were at the bare bottom for first part of the season, they only recovered later on. They can't keep doing that every season, eventually they will drop and Lyon dropping is not a normal thing considering their past.

For younger generation here, Lyon was what PSG is right now, they won so many titles in a row and looked like the most dominant power and they were good in Europe as well. So becoming this from that is not an easy achievement and I hope to see Lyon do better, losing these games is troubled but Marseille is a great team so maybe we can give a break for this game alone.

I have said before that my favorite in League 1 this year is Marseille.
In the match played yesterday, Marseille had 10 men in front of Lyon in the 5th minute and played with 10 men for almost 90 minutes, including extra time.
Lacazette could not convert the penalty kick into a goal in the extra time of the first half.

Lyon found the goal they were looking for in the 53rd minute, but Marseille responded to this goal with Lirola in the 69th minute and made the score 1-1. Marseille made the score 1-2 with Garcia in the 82nd minute. In the extra minutes, Lyon scored first with Cherki and made the score 2-2, but 2 minutes after this goal, Marseille found the advantage and made the score 2-3.  There was no other goal after this goal and Marseille beat Lyon 2-3 in the match with 10 players and remained in second place with goal difference.

Even though they only played with 10 people, Marseille was able to win this match with a lot of struggle. Playing at the opponent's home with 10 people since the 5th minute is not easy, but they were able to show that they could win even with the limitations they had. At first I thought they would lose when they got a red card at the start of the match, but it turned out I was wrong.
All goals were scored in the second half, Lyon was able to take the lead first, well I thought after Lyon's goal they would be able to maintain it, but Marseille was able to quickly reply and even turn things around. In added time Lyon was able to equalize, but surprisingly Marseille was also able to score another goal.
I don't think this victory of Marseille is one to be underestimated. Despite playing really poorly, they played magnificently without making it felt. Instead of playing with 10 player , it was as if they were playing with 11 player throughout the match. Marseille played magnificently. This was a huge defeat for Lyon. Despite playing a lot, they couldn't get the three points and even though they were ahead, they couldn't keep it. The coach needs to analyze the mistakes in defense well.

Yesterday in the French Ligue 1, Olympic Marseille were able to come beat their hosts Lyon despite playing over 85 minutes of the game with 10 men. To me, I think that's a strong indication to show that the Olympic Marseille team is very determined to challenge reigning champions Paris Saint Germaine for the French league title this season. With that result, Marseille are now on the same number of points with the league leaders who are only better with goal difference. It's been long we experienced a strong competition in the French league and I think most football fans will like to see it happen again. This season promises to be an interesting season in the French league already for fans of the league.

The result of the Lyon - Marseille game is showing how desperate Lyon are this season.

Marseille got a red card in the fifth minute already. But they still won by 3-2 away. It sounds really crazy honestly.  Grin  Lyon can't even win a game home against a team played the whole game with 10 players. What's next now?  Huh  Do you think we will see Lyon recovering in the second part of the season just like the previous one? I personally hope so. They are once again hanging around the relegation zone...

The same manager, nice new signings but they just can't get over it anyway.

As I thought before no matter what happens, Marseille will still get 3 points from Lyon. From the quality of the current players Marseille is very good and has become one of the strongest challengers by PSG after Greenwood joined Marseille, everything has changed for the better.

Lyon's performance has been poor since the start of this season. Lyon have not won any match except the match against Strasbourg. Lyon's performance in each match was poor. On the other hand, Marseille is one of the strongest teams in Ligue 1 this season. They have performed well in every match.

Lyon's main weakness is that their defenders are not playing well. And this is why the team lost against Marseille as well. However, the performance of Lyon players in this match was quite good. If their defense was a bit stronger they could have picked up points against Marseille. Lyon conceded 11 goals in 5 matches. Lyon's coach should take necessary steps to strengthen the team's defense. Otherwise, this team cannot be in the top 10 of the table.
Marseille managed to win full points in the continuation of ligue 1 this season and the 3 points they got over Lyon were able to make them currently in second place in ligue 1, the points earned by Marseille and PSG are currently the same 13 but PSG is ahead by a point difference over marseille  which makes them entitled to claim 1st place in the current ligue 1 standings,  Marseille this season has made a lot of breakthroughs in team building, not only bringing in De Zerbi as their new coach, Marseille has also made a lot of good signings so as to improve the quality of the team they have, the only thing that is most regrettable may be Aubameyang exit this season from the team, but at least at the moment they have Henrique and also Greenwood who can be relied on in scoring goals.
 So far, the match between Marseille and Lyon has often caused controversy and also riots between spectators, but fortunately yesterday match was quite conducive with very tight security .

It looks like Marseille has a good opportunity to keep on adding points in the next two games. Looking at their game, the team has become more solid plus the recent appointment of De Zerbi as a coach and getting some new quality players, it places Marseille into clear favorites. With rather weaker opponents, Marseille is supposed to win two matches and maintain its standing. Well, but of course what really makes an impression is their duel with PSG later on after that. The match against PSG always attracts plenty of attention, especially with both teams' current conditions being at the very top of the league table at this time. The duel will undoubtedly set the tone for the remaining part of this season's Ligue 1 competition.

Yes you are right that the PSG vs Reims match always keeps mystery and quite often they end the match with draw and the last time PSG won was last season, actually in every victory always shows landslide result for PSG but that football that really can't be predicted for sure.
But I got replacement victory for another match with much better odds, Monaco is still as expected by beating Le Havre and Monaco game is really good enough, plus Marseille victory today against Lyon with score of 2 - 3 so that Marseille and Monaco victory made me not feel so disappointed with PSG failure.
Marseille lost one of their players early in the first half and with 10 players they were still able to play very well and win, if there was no red card maybe Marseille could have won by landslide today.


The Marseilles victory was one of the most noticed yesterday due to the circumstances around it, imagining winning with a red card it was enough reason for many to give some attention to it but that of Monaco was really not much of a surprise due to the fact that they were both almost equal teams, that's how I see it, I also wasn't expecting much off that game because I don't see both teams to be of much contending strength a s they are of the average starters of their league. Nevertheless congratulations to you on your win mate.
