Enough to enrage Paris Saint-Germain, especially since the match referee François Letexier avoided the media.

On the move to Louis II to widen his gap against a direct competitor for the title of champion of Ligue 1the men of Luis Enrique took the best of AS Monaco (4-2) despite the emotional shock due to the injury to the face of Gianluigi Donnarumma following contact with the crampon Wilfried Singo which earned him 10 staples to patch him up.
“The referee has only one job, that is to protect the players”
This contact could, even should, have been sanctioned according to Marquinhos. The PSG captain did not hide his surprise and annoyance at the absence of a red card for Wilfried Singo. “I don’t know if the referee was in the wrong place, but VAR had to be called, we have to protect the players. In a situation like this, don’t put red, it’s strong.” Third scorer of the evening, Gonçalo Ramos also uttered a rant towards François Letexiermain referee of the match in the mixed zone and in comments relayed by RMC Sport.
“I think everyone saw his face. I don’t know how it’s possible that it’s not a red card. The referee has only one job, and that is to protect the players. And it’s not me or the players who say it, they told us it at the start of the season. That they had to protect the players. And today, they did not protect Donnarumma.”
Letexier dodges beIN SPORTS and doesn’t explain!
According to information from RMC Sport, François Letexier refused to comment on his decision not to sanction Wilfried Singo at the microphone of beIN SPORTS, broadcaster of the meeting AS Monaco – PSG Wednesday evening. And this, despite the attempts of the sports channel. A choice that calls out since he had come to explain himself to DAZN at the end of October after showing a red card to Amine Harit pendant ABOUT – PSG (3-0).
