What kind of crap are the Lyon fans throwing at Neymar at the corner?

Why is Icardi not even on the bench today? Is he injured?

Tuchel says he's still behind in terms of match fitness. And this is a massive fixture for PSG.


What an effort by Neymar to win it!

You guys should see Di Maria's second goal against Nice. Currently 2-0 up and scored a sick half volley with the outside of his left foot on a tight angle. The guy is on fire this season.

He is always on fire till the CL matters and he is nowhere to be found, same with Argentina.

he scores hard ones and misses easy ones (missed an easy one today too; top of the box, central, on his left, no pressure...over the bar)

I think I have become a marseille fan lol....... I always liked their crest, colors and the passion of their fans. the stadium is amazing has always been my favorite ever.

I binge watched their YouTube and I hope we do some content like them. their channel really gave me an inside look of the players and the passion of the city and fans. Idk it really made care about the team... but I already appreciated them.

I've got cousins in Marseilles so when I was a kid "picking" clubs I went after them as "my French team". Their logo is indeed pretty iconic and I always like the white/baby-blue of their kits. :yao: Chelsea was the English one, blue kits ftw, pre-Abramovich era when they were a complete joke most of the time. Not sure about Spain, I think I went with Atletico. Couldn't be arsed to pick a German team tho.

I’m a catch a couple games see if I feel anything. I also like atletico, I always take a look at their scores but never felt much when I watched one of their games.

When they played the Europa final I was rooting for Marseille.

OM have cool kits but i preferred their stadium pre the roof for EURO 16.

In blue i prefer FC Girondins primarily for the Girondists from the French Revolution.Also liked Bordeaux's earlier stadium and the new one seems generic.I am hoping these Qataris get bored of PSG soon enough and leave and the Ligue 1 can go back to having a new champion every year -RC Lens,Auxerre,OM,Bordeaux,Monaco,PSG,Nantes Atlantique!!! Was fun watching a new talent pool winning the league and then next season the same would lose a couple of players and be battling relegation :D.

The league has/had some very interesting stadiums with AS Monaco having such a pretty one.Also like the RC Lens stadium and the Auxerre stadium has 4 different stands.Now all new stadia seem generic Konami style stadiums to me.

Im watching OM - Brestois, the Brestois GK made the most retarded move ever :lol: lucky him they didnt concede. French league at its best.

After his teammate passed him the ball, he lifted it up :lol: funny thing is it wasnt right away, but he had the ball at his feet for 5 or more seconds, and he simply.. Lifted it. :D

Also OM hit the post 4 times, had like 10 chances, and missed them all.

This league used to be so much fun without PSG (and Monaco at some points) dominating it so much. They need Lyon, Marseille, Bordeaux, Lille and St Etienne to pick things up as hard as it may seem for them to compete.

Marseille may get their win after all with a 90th minute goal for the 2-1.

Same can be said about our league.

If you complain about weak or bad corner kicks, I wonder what Lyon fans should say.

Leonardo Jardim got fired from Monaco (again). Marcelino, former Valencia coach, is the favorite to replace him.

Edit: They decided to hire Robert Moreno, former Spain interim coach, instead.

Keita Balde is also starting, got booked for a stupid dive in the area, now he contributed to Monaco's leading goal.

Verratti and Sarabia enter the game as subs. One minute later Verratti lobs the ball to Sarabia for the 0-3. VAR had to correct the assistant who discovered an offside there.

Feels weird to have two league games between the same teams being played within 3 days. Feels like Playoffs or something :lol:
