Paris is here and it's calling the shots! They beat Lyon 3-1

Manos Staramopoulos • 16 de diciembre de 2024

PSG is galloping towards another title in Ligue 1. After two consecutive draws, the Parisians returned to success.

PSG defeated at Olympique Lyon and consolidated its leadership in Ligue 1.

Thanks to two goals in the first quarter, Paris Saint-Germain managed to beat Lyon 3-1 and jump to +7 from second-placed Marseille.

The hosts were even lucky to build a winning foundation very early on. Initially, in the 8th minute, international Dembele found himself in a shooting position in the area and wrote 1-0, while in the 14th minute, Vitinia raised the score to 2-0 with a well-aimed penalty.


Nevertheless, Lyon managed to return to the match in the 40th minute when Tserki managed to find a passage for a pass between three opponents and bring out the international Georgian striker, Mikautadze in a tete-a-tete position, who in turn executed a beautiful lob to Donnarumma to reduce to 2-1.


And in the 88th minute, 3-1 was achieved with Portuguese forward Gonzalo Ramos who scored the third goal from close range and sealed the victory for the Parisians.


Khelaifi's response


We must note that with this victory, Paris also gave an answer to Lyon's major shareholder, American John Textor, who had declared that "Paris is not a team, but a state". And the top administrative leader of the Parisians, Nasser Al Khelaifi, had replied "They are insulting Paris and French football". And now his team comes and gives a paid answer to Mr. Textor

5 de los 6 equipos de la Premier League que participan en la actual edición de la UEFA Champions League, se han clasificado de forma directa a los octavos de final, un registro que confirma su amplia superioridad en la máxima competición europea; sobre otras grandes ligas, en franco declive como la española e italiana. Los 5 clasificados en el Top 8 cerraron su clasificación en la última jornada., pero de forma permanente en la liguilla, estuvieron presentes en la parte alta de la clasificación como los casos del Arsenal -líder autoriario- el Manchester City y el Liverpool. A ellos se sumaron en un gran sprint; el Chelsea -un invitado de lujo- y el Tottenham. A los 5 ingleses, les acompañarán el FC Barcelona (España), el Bayern Múnich (Alemania) y el Sporting de Lisboa que se metió de forma sorpresiva en octavos de forma directa, ganando en San Mamés de forma heróica.
