PSG seem to have recovered well after having a bad day at the office during the UEFA games against Real Madrid... they are currently in action playing Bordeaux and they lead by two goals to nil courtesy to goals coming from Mbappe and Neymar and i see another goal to come which is a good sign that they have not been derailed from their home duties in ligue 1.

Update: they got a third goal...wish they did this in the champions league Tongue

Kylian Mbappe once again lead his team with scoring, then Neymar and Leandro get goals equally single goal.

However, Messi and Neymar are getting extremely clearly whistled with each touch they make against Bordeaux. It seems like supporters blew up over Messi and Neymar as both performance lead champions league dismissal somehow. Ligue 1 trophies isn't their priorities but Champions League. They sure they deserve it, they're simply waste of investment. Especially Neymar.

I can see there performance is very well against Bordeaux as they are already leading with three goals, they really show that they are still well and very competitive despite there defeat and elimination in UEFA Champions League. Its clear that next season they will surly do well in champions league next season. I just have the believe that what happened against Real Madrid will not repeat its self because PSG have the team that should be the Champions of Europe.

Top 2 positions on standings league looks very tight currently because Nice, Marseille, and Rennes compete each other to finish at that position and while Nice failed to get full points yesterday i think this could be right time for Marseille to reduce gap points with Nice but i wish they will playing good against Brest today because so far the fans are not satisfied with Marseille performance lately

Both Nice and Marseille are in fact like two teams that are not much different in quality, so I think the competition for positions 2 and 3 for UCL tickets can still be taken over by any team at least for positions 2, 3 and maybe 4. Also, I think Nice stay played some good football yesterday against Montpellier despite the draw, as Nice only played with 10 men. Regarding Marseille which currently only has a 3 point gap with Nice, if in today's match against Brest, Marseille can win it will be the same point. But I think the position will remain the same because it looks like Nice are leading in the number of goals but, if Marseille can win by more than 3 goals with clean sheets then Marseille will be able to overtake Nice in 2nd place.

playing with ten players turned out to be really hard for NICE. after dante was hit with a red card, NICE's midfield was slightly open, montpellier must be able to win in this match, the pressure they gave was already very good, only luck was not on montpellier's side.

Nice were actually the favorite of this fixture and playing with a man down mearnt that there was going to be less of the attacking and likely more of the defending to be done. I think montpellier should be angry with themselves for not taking this chance especially that they were playing from their home turf....but then again it becomes more tougher to break a teams defense when they are a player down as everyone now has double duties.

It looks like the fight for the second position will go on till the end of the season. Because both of Nice and Marseille teams are prone to losing points in various matches in the league. And this causes none of them to pull away from the other one. For example, Nice drew with Montpellier and this is a good opportunity for Marseille to equalize the points. And they can even take the second position too if they have the needed goal gap in the Brest match. And there is a feeling in me like that Marseille will be the 2nd team at the end of the season.

Nice had a really bad day against Montpellier today. Nice got a red card and this started bad things for them. Montpellier were already a dangerous opponent and this incident helped them get stronger in this match. And they really could have won the match too if they weren't too bad at scoring. Nice still secured one point in this bad situation. And now Marseille will be targeting to have the second position in the standings. But they will have to defeat Brest by a big goal difference to do this.

Despite the red card bad luck for nice and a draw result as they failed to keep up with psg at the top two , they are not losing the three points and earned one at least.
They defend it very well and make it goalless as montpellier desperate to move up into the european competition zone.

Still .. marseille haunting them to drag them down to 3rd as they had 1 game advantage.

Nantes struggled a bit at the moment against Troyes, Half a minute from Half Time Nantes still couldn't get into Troyes defense and shoot the ball at their keeper. Nantes will have to get a win and earn points to sit at least in the top 5 to get rid of Starsbourg who are just a point away, this match is still on, will Nantes win this time?

It's a shame Nantes had to accept defeat, having previously managed to go unbeaten in 4 consecutive matches in Ligue 1. Even Nantes managed
to surprise many people when they beat PSG with a very convincing score, but facing Troyes which is a weaker team than Nantes, Nantes seems
to have difficulty scoring goals. Even though Nantes really need a win to be in the top 5, so that next season they can play in European competition.
But this season, Nantes has actually played very well, experiencing an increase in performance compared to the previous season, which was almost
relegated. But since there are still 10 more games left this season for Nantes to play, so their chances are still open to enter the top 5 this season.
Hopefully Nantes can learn from the defeat against Troyes, and improve their performance so that in the next match they can win. Although their
next opponent wasn't easy, because Nantes had to face Lille who the previous season were winners of the Ligue 1 trophy.

Nice should count themselves very lucky against Montpellier today. Because they got an early red card and it was the start of horrible things for Nice. Montpellier missed a penalty four minutes after that. And they did everything they could to score a goal by not giving any proper chance to Nice. But still the game ended in a draw by 0-0. However, there is an opportunity for Marseille to take the second place back from Nice now. They are playing against Brest away tomorrow. If they get a win by at least three goals, they can make it there.

Marseille could catch Nice and get the same number of points, otherwise playing most of the game with 10 players and getting a draw is something positive for Nice tho. For the other games played, Lille and Nantes losing vs +15 teams in the table was curious.
I am waiting for PSG match against Bordeaux, the first and the last teams of the table. PSG isn't concentrating and their defeat against Real Madrid will remain quite long time in their minds.

Your right nice team was lucky dante mistake could've cost them the game its his 2 red card in 3 games and they both managed to not lose on them despite being dominated by the home team i think marseille will take this opportunity and get the second place, brest team is a bit unconsistent and marseille play better away they have a high chance of winning tomorrow.

The match ended in a draw in this match, the game scheme changed drastically after Dante was given a red card by the referee. OGC Nice threw away their chance to go further than Marseille who are currently in 3rd place in the Ligue 1 standings. Even worse, Nice did not have a shot on goal in this match, in my opinion, this match was Nice's worst game this season.

No doubt this was one off worst game for OGC Nice against Montpellier's but having red card very early and still end with managing one point is not easy for them with this one crucial point they still can stay at second spot with difference of good goals because now Marseille is also going to play against Brest which is not good team and here they can give all three points to them. If today OGC Nice manage to win and have full points then surely it's going to be big advantage for them because now just 10 games remaining, and all points are very important for all teams.

Now tomorrow we are going to have few very interesting matches which are also going to have some big impact on this league table as all teams are trying their best for achieving higher rank and few are having good chance for qualifying into European competitions.

Montpellier 0 - 0 Nice

With this draw, Nice is further away from PSG, even though there are still more than 7 games left to finish Ligue 1, in my opinion PSG is already the champion, they don't have an opponent in Ligue 1. I hope that next season the other teams can also win League 1 and the championship will be more competitive, that PSG without the eternal dominant makes League 1 less competitive, the other teams don't have a chance to be champions, they just play for themselves keep on call 1. It's an unpleasant situation

... Did you see bad quality in the game between Real Madrid and PSG until the minute when Benzema scored after a mistake? I didn't see bad quality. That was absolute outstanding. They were dangerous as *** offensively, and they were doing ok defensively. The reason that these players can't perform at their maximum all the time in Ligue 1 is because they have seen and won so much, I think it is just human that you can't play at 110%. You are just not able to motivate yourself so hard because you are usually going to win the national title anyway. But really, speaking of low quality is quite far off...

I also completely disagree that Paris Saint-Germain showed poor quality of play in the match with Real Madrid. If it hadn't been for Donnarumma's monstrous mistake and then the referee's unwillingness to fix the violation of the rules of the game, then PSG should have calmly won this match because it looked much more solid in the game. Carlo Ancelotti would have been on the verge of being fired from Real Madrid, because before this match there were rumors that Florentino Perez was very unhappy with the first match and threatened to fire the head coach if the club did not advance to the next stage of the tournament. Another question is that such a strong team should not fall apart in a few minutes, as happened after Benzema's second goal, and this is some fault of the average level of the French championship, where the absolute majority of teams do not pose such problems to such an indisputable leader as PSG.

Yes, but are you referring to Donnaruma's situation when you say that the referee was unwilling to punish Benzema for his attack? I must honestly say that I do agree it was probably a foul, but I wasn't surprised there was no whistle. It was one of these situations where there is so much drama in the game and Donnaruma did indeed *** it up, that a referee might just let the game continue. The VAR can't even do much as far as I know in such a situation.

The French league now will be some sad final weeks. PSG without motivation, but still bringing home the national trophy, but nobody in the world cares. Sad to not see Mbappe play anymore in the CL. The guy is an absolute beast and a future world soccer player.

Well indeed in this case it might be a long debate about the incident that befell Benzema and Donaruma but on the other hand the match is over and the referee's decision cannot be contested in this matter.
Winning a trophy in the domestic league for them is not too strange so it's because they have now dominated there even since a few years ago so it's very natural that no one cares about it
