@Saint-loup Neymar got very lucky in this case, but now he really needs to perform on the pitch by scoring goals and help PSG win more games.

League operators usually want to give special protections on their biggest stars (to keep traffics, TV audience ratings and income) and I do not doubt that Neymar is one of biggest starts in Ligue I. I can understand the final result of Ligue I's investigation on Neymar case.

However, Ligue I has a history of very strict bans on rule breaks and Neymar case can be a bad precedent on the league.

It's an interesting point of view, I didn't think about that to be honest. But it would imply that the commission is not fair neither unbiased.
That's a bold statement.

Certainly they took this on consideration Wink

I see that PSG destructed Angers with 6 goals! and wonder know how a player could take a red card in just 3 minutes of the beginning of the match lol @ Nantes Lips sealed

4 banned matches for Di Maria (PSG) and Neymar are facing investigation and potential serious ban. If the investigation result shows that Neymar had bad words and gestures in the El Classique, he should say good bye to Ballon Dor one more season. Neymar has never shown that he is stable and professional enough to beat Messi and Ronaldo. Even in PSG, after the World Cup 2020, his position and importance have fallen behind KM7's.

Finally Neymar got no sanctions, neither Alvaro Gonzalez.
But now Alvaro wants to sue Neymar in justice for his insults!

AFAIK those "insults" weren't recorded and Neymar is accusing him too for saying racist comments... This trial will not lead to anything so I suppose he is just sending threats and scoring points by attacking Neymar rather than going to the court for real imo.

@snipie you’re right because Alvaro is indeed playing mind games with Neymar, and in my personal opinion his focus will be on winning games, rather than fighting a legal battle with Neymar which only serve as a distraction for him.

Too bad for Di Maria, heade himself a perfect judge of Character and Moral yet, he was too hasty to condem.
Neymar's challenge has always relied on his attitude on how he carries himself and towards the games. He might be the most important player in the PSG team but, a team is valued to it's least player and once the PSG team starts loosing in a game, the consciousness of team play seems to evade Neymar.
This action has always left him in years as evident in the just concluded UCL.

gap to PSG does not matter at all, since PSG will get the title with at least 10 points difference, and that will be more at the end of the season
nevertheless, St Etienne had a good start, and could fight for Champions league this season, Rennes as well, but it will be hard to play in this form constantly

Totally not predictable for this season I'd say. First few games see PSG without players and then the rust being shaken off. Lyon proved to us that they were a CL special but flat in this league as usual. PSG will win by a big margin like you said when it all comes down to it as usual. Another CL final appearance if they manage to regain full fitness.

What a come back by Nantes! Despite having a 2-0 lead until 70 minutes, Etienne conceded 2 goals. The odd was pretty good for Etienne when they had scored the first goal; it was 1.73, hence I placed a bet of 1 mBTC. I can't believe that Nantes could come back in this match. A bad day, indeed.

That's football for you. So long as they've got as much as five minutes on the clock, a lot can happen. It takes only the final whistle to decide. A bad day for you indeed. Better luck next time.

Good odds and unexpected end of the game! Receiving 2 goals in the last 20 minutes means whether St-Etienne players weren't well prepared or they underestimate their opponents.. They missed a chance to run a little bit with the first position and especially increase the gap vs PSG!

fly or die

It's Saint-Étienne (St-Etienne for short) not Etienne. Maybe why you lost ! Kidding...

PSG was of course the victim of such a crazy come-back some years ago, over two matches but still, 4-0 to 5-6 : https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/FC_Barcelona_6%E2%80%931_Paris_Saint-Germain_F.C.

From what I've read, he's facing a 6 matches ban for his spitting. Commentators are pretty confident he will get such a big ban because the footage is unambiguous and because of the coronavirus pandemia. Undecided

Wow! A 6 match ban seems much. It's funny they have to take the Covid19 thing into consideration following the fact that, every individual that features in the match or even enters the stadium are tested and satisfied to be off the infection Pathway.
I don't blame them though, it's the trend of things now, since you can't put on nose mask on the pitch, you can as well keep your fluids to yourself. It's okay.

PSG finally rising from the ashes to take there birth right on the league table as the gain all three points against Nice.

Nice 0-3 PSG

When will we know if Angel Di Maria is finally banned or not please?
Has a date already been set for his disciplinary committee?

I strongly believe his going to scale through without being banned, that's me though not the committee but then,
His actions is not justifiable under any law. Either the person is wrong or not. Spitting on or at someone is looking down on that person as well, making himself a perfect judge of character which is wrong. I guess he just wanted to say, 'You disgust me' but not with words. I still hopes he escapes this one though.
Being racist is inhumane and not of this era or century.
Say no to racism.

Didn't watch it but regarding the stats, it seems that Lyon dominated the game but failed to score...

I am taking some break from following french league and betting on this matches or I will lose all my coins. Tongue

MMA and other leagues are better.

One more try for French League from me

Lyon - Nimes looks like a sure home win here, and away team has seven players missing this match.
Depay from Lyio is league top scorer with four goals and and in good form, and Lyon was better inmost h2h matches with Nimes.
Odds are not that great but I will take them.
Lyon win

And it is a draw unfortunately Undecided
